Speaking to the media, he criticized AP CM Jaganmohan Reddy. He alleged that the AP government is not releasing funds under the scheme ‘Ambedkar Foreign Education’ to the students of AP. Anand said, “As you asked for one chance, we gave you. But now, we are hitting ourselves with our sandals as a reward for giving you that one chance.”
