Only until yesterday did rebel YSRCP MP from Narasapuram, Raghu Ramakrishna Raju, show no hints of leaving his party, despite constantly criticising it. Yet, he said today that he’s willing to resign as a member of the Lok Sabha and contest a by-election if the YSRCP fails to get him disqualified from the Lok Sabha.
The YSRCP has been trying to get RRR disqualified from the Lok Sabha for a long time now, ever since the MP has been made controversial and negative statements against YSRCP and Chief Minister Jagan. However, the YSRCP hasn’t been successful in its attempt, with RRR continuing as the MP of Narasapuram.
RRR said that through his by-election, he wants to show the YSRCP the people’s true intentions towards the government. He said that he intends on contesting in the by-elections with Amaravati as the main issue, which would very easily prove to the government the kind of opinion the people of the state have towards the YSRCP and its decisions. It is now to be seen if RRR would in fact resign from his post, or this debate would go on until his term is over.
