Former minister and YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leader Vidadala Rajini sparked controversy with her aggressive remarks on Saturday, drawing attention with a bold reference to Newton’s theory while taking a dig at her political opponents. She lashed out at the opposition, alleging that false legal cases were being filed against her and her family. Rajini, currently a YSRCP Former MLA from Chilakaluripet, didn’t hold back as she directly targeted TDP senior leader and MLA Prathipati Pulla Rao, accusing him of political vendetta. Additionally, she issued a stern warning to certain officials, asserting that once YSRCP regains power, they will take action to rectify the injustices.
Prathipati Pulla Rao’s Sharp Response
Rajini’s accusations did not sit well with Prathipati Pulla Rao, who hit back with an equally fiery counterattack. Speaking to the media, the TDP leader criticized her leadership, accusing Rajini of failing the people of Chilakaluripet and doing a grave injustice to the Backward Classes (BC) community. He ridiculed her long-term political ambitions, questioning how someone struggling to maintain a five-year political tenure could even think of a 30-year-long career. Prathipati even cast doubts on whether she would remain relevant in politics for much longer.
Prathipati Scathing Remarks
Taking his attack a step further, Prathipati Pulla Rao said,
“You betrayed the very people who voted for you. You deceived the leaders who worked tirelessly for your success. During the 2019 elections, you called some leaders ‘father’ and ‘uncle,’ only to abandon them later. The moment you sensed defeat, you fled to Guntur, leaving everyone behind. And now, you return claiming to be a BC leader and a champion for women? Is this how a true BC representative behaves? Is this the conduct of a dignified woman leader? Do you even deserve that title?”
Political Tensions Intensify in Chilakaluripet
With both leaders exchanging heated words, the political rivalry in Chilakaluripet has intensified, making this a hot topic in Andhra Pradesh’s political circles. The battle for dominance in the constituency continues to escalate, as both parties brace for the upcoming electoral challenges.
