Former Kadapa MP Y S Jaganmohan Reddy on Friday reassured the members of the Muslim community that he would, on no account, enter into any electoral alliance with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Addressing a massive gathering of Muslims at Pulivendula on Friday, the former MP made it clear that he would not go for a tie-up with Bharatiya Janata Party in the 2014 general elections.
Expressing regrets, he alleged that the Congress high command had driven a wedge in his family by using his uncle Y S Vivekananda Reddy. Jaganmohan Reddy added that the soul of his father and former Chief Minister, YS Rajasekhara Reddy, would not rest in peace after witnessing such a discord among his family members.
Y S Vivekananda Reddy has already stated that he was willing to contest against anyone from any constituency, and the general belief is that he would be fielded against Jaganmohan Reddy's mother and YSR's widow, Y S Vijayalakshmi, for the Pulivendula Assembly by-elections,
Jaganmohan Reddy said that he had stood up and fought against Congress President Sonia Gandhi, who he alleged, had divided his family by luring his uncle with a minister's post.
"As I have the guts and courage, I came out of Congress party. I will make an announcement regarding the formation of my new party soon. This party will be made up of loyalists of YSR, and will work towards implementing the welfare programs launched by my father, " he asserted.
He said that the upcoming election was a fight between corrupt politicians on one hand, and those with character on the other.
