Panchayat elections in Kadapa district have sparked controversy in the YCP. A close associate of CM Jagan, IT Advisor Tummalla Lokeshwar Reddy, and Kamalapuram MLA Rabindranath Reddy are contesting for the post of Sarpanch in the same constituency. Against this backdrop, Lokeshwar resigned from his post of AP IT advisor. In the past, he quit his job in the US before the elections and came to his district. Lokeshwar Reddy has been given the post of AP Cabinet IT Adviser.
It is learned that Lokeshwar Reddy, who was upset with the party leaders for fielding a candidate for the compromise agreement, has resigned from the post of government IT advisor. AP CS Adhithyanath Das confirmed that Lokeshwar Reddy’s resignation was accepted.
