Jana Sena president and film actor Pawan Kalyan's tweet and maverick Tollywood director Ram Gopal Varma's comment on it caused a minor flutter today.
On the issue of Special Status to Andhra Pradesh, Kalyan today said that the BJP should not commit the same mistake as the Congress did.
In a Telugu tweet, Kalyan said, "The Congress committed a blunder by bifurcating Andhra Pradesh unscientifically, resulting in all Seemandhra Congress MPs being kicked out of Lok Sabha just two years ago. The injustice done by the Congress will not be forgotten by the people of Seemandhra. Now the BJP should not repeat the same mistake by reneging on the promised special status to the State."
Kalyan urged Seemandhra MPs to fight in Parliament for Special Status.
Responding to Kalyan's tweet, RGV commented, "Gabbar Singh should not become Beggar Singh. We should not request the Centre to grant special status to Andhra Pradesh - it should be our demand."
