Dadi Veerabadra rao, who quits TDP and gearing-up join YSR Congress party has faced an unexpected resistance from his followers and from YSRCP cadres in Anakapalli town. His followers have isolated him condemning his decision of leaving the party and to join YSRCP, which he earlier described as robbers’ party. His followers have made protests in front of his house at Anakapalli yesterday. They told the media that, they don’t want to follow him as they want to remain forever in TDP only. They sharply criticized him for keeping them in dark till he quits the party. They said he has betrayed TDP, which gave him name and fame.

 

The situation is no different for him on the other side also. YSRCP cadres have protested Dadi’s arrival into party. They said it is unfair to welcome such a person, who abused the party and troubled its leaders in the city. Konathala Ramakrishna, senior leader of the YSRCP and his brother Lakshmi Narayana are also not happy with his arrival, as they personally and politically have faced several problems with him, while he was in TDP. They both plainly told their party high command that they are not happy with his arrival.

 

However, Dadi Veerabadra rao has said, today he will meet Jagan Mohan Reddy and discuss with him about his joining into his party. If, he is satisfied with his terms and conditions will join the party otherwise quit politics. He is neither wanted in TDP nor in YSRCP now. Unfortunately, his 3decades of political experience couldn’t stop him from taking a grave mistake like this, with which he not only puts his political life at stake but also his son Ratnakar’s life.

 

The only relief he had now is a welcome message from Congress Minister Ganta Srinivasa rao. He said, if Dadi wants to join Congress party, he would like to welcome him into party. However, Dadi may face the same situation in Congress also, as there also Congress cadres are opposing his entry into party.
