Alla Ramakrishna Reddy Dismisses Lokesh's Victory Chances in Mangalagiri

YSRCP's sitting MLA, Alla Ramakrishna Reddy, has made satirical comments on Nara Lokesh, the National General Secretary of TDP and the party's candidate from Mangalagiri. He stated that Nara Lokesh has no path to victory, indicating that some situations are just inevitable. He emphasized the importance of clearly articulating the word 'Mangalagiri' and asking for votes. Reddy accused Lokesh of attempting to win in Mangalagiri out of a greed for wealth, suggesting that the people are ready to reject him. He criticized the promises made by Chandrababu Naidu, mentioning past claims of transforming Andhra Pradesh into Singapore and now Lokesh's assertions of turning Mangalagiri into Gachibowli.

Reddy highlighted that during the five years of governance by Chandrababu Naidu and his son, they did nothing beneficial for Mangalagiri. He voiced the local desire for a Mangalagiri where middle-class families, the poor, and farmers can live happily, rather than a place dominated by billionaires like Gachibowli. He further stated that the circumstances for people to bless the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) do not exist in the state. These remarks were made during a YSRCP meeting held in Mangalagiri on Wednesday night.
