Did popular comedian in Telugu films Ali join the YSR Congress party only after party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy assured to make him Rajya Sabha member?
Well, that is what power star and Jana Sena Party chief Pawan Kalyan feels.
Addressing a road show at Kotipalli bus stand centre in Rajahmundry, the power star wondered why Ali, who had been supporting all these years, suddenly decided to join YSR Congress party.
“I helped Ali a lot when he was in trouble. I wonder why he preferred to join the YSRC. Is it the way to reciprocate the friendship?” he asked.
He alleged that Ali was aspiring to become an MP and probably, Jagan might have given him an assurance to make him one.
“Apparently, Ali might have thought Jagan is a powerful leader. It is clear that YSRC leaders are using him for their political benefits,” he said.
Pawan accused Jagan being a power hungry politician.
“He tried to ascend the throne even before his father late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy’s body was laid to rest,” he said.
In the past, Pawan did not react on Ali’s joining the YSRC. He said Ali was free to join any party of his choice and that he was not depending on star power, but his own efforts.
