The last week, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy suddenly came to Pragathi Bhavan and met to his Telangana Counterpart, K Chandrasekhara Rao. This meeting was not planned in advance and is more of an Adhoc meeting. Sources tell us that during this meeting, KCR gave a piece of invaluable advice to Jagan.
The AP CM announced in the State Assembly that he is not ready to take other party MLAs into his party unless they come resigned. He even asked the Speaker to disqualify such MLAs even if he does that. KCR reportedly asked Jagan to reconsider this decision as this is opening gates for BJP in the state.
He also told Jagan Mohan Reddy that this is giving breathing space to TDP which should be already out by now if YSR Congress opened the gate. It has to be seen if KCR’s advice will force change in Jagan’s decision as that would dent his credibility.
The Telangana Chief Minister had virtually finished the Opposition in the State by encouraging defections and merging the Legislative Parties of other parties into TRS. Interestingly, during the last term, KCR also merged the Legislative Party of YSR Congress into TRSLP.
