Kamalamma To Campaign For Congress

After days of confusing the media and public alike on whether she would support former MP Y S Jaganmohan Reddy or the Congress Party, Budvel MLA Kamalamma broke her silence on Friday and said that she will campaign for Dr. D L Ravindra Reddy in the by-elections to the Kadapa Lok Sabha seat.

Speaking to media persons at the Congress Legislature Party office after meeting Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy at his camp office, Kamalamma said that she had been friendly with Jagan due to her close relationship with former Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy.

She also pointed out that she had never formally joined the YSR Congress Party, and vowed to serve the Congress as a loyal and obedient worker. Kamalamma also revealed that she has planned to campaign for the Congress candidates D L Ravindra Reddy and Y S Vivekananda Reddy, in the Kadapa and Pulivendula by-elections respectively.

Recalling that she had won the Budvel Assembly seat on a Congress ticket, Kamalamma made it clear that she had never criticized the party or its leadership at any time.

She also revealed that Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy had assured development for her constituency by releasing more funds.

However, she also added that Jagan had never shown any bias towards her, and that he has always treated all his supporters equally. (INN)
