Vallabhaneni Vamsi meeting Jagan Mohan Reddy has scandalized the TDP rank and file. While the party is worried over the message the action will send to the party cadres, there is also a general sense of disbelief among the party leadership.
Interestingly, Vamsi is known as a loyal follower of the late Paritala Ravi, in whose killing the role of Jagan has been a subject of much debate by the TDP.
It is still not clear whether Vamsi accidentally ran across Jagan during the latter’s Vijayawada tour or whether it was a premeditated action. The whole issue has become more complicated because Jr NTR is not keeping good terms with TDP leadership, and Vamsi is a close friend of the actor.
But whatever the differences between NTR and Chandrababu Naidu, it is difficult believe that Harikrishna or NTR would encourage Vamsi to meet Jagan in public.
It is not only TDP but also Paritala followers who are upset with Vamsi’s action. The party’s unusually swift move is a reflection of the seriousness of the TDP leadership.
Meanwhile, Vallabhaneni Vamsi is said to have rushed to Hyderabad, but no one has been able to trace him. It is to be seen whether Vamsi will personally meet Chandrababu Naidu and give explanation or he will just send an explanation.
