Soon after Konathala Ramakrishna was relieved from YSR Congress party, his close aide Gandi Babji also quits party. While quitting the party, he reveals that Jagan Mohan Reddy is suffering with insecure feeling. He fears that if seniors are encouraged in the party they will steal the limelight that he wants for himself. Babji terms it as insecure-phobia.

“He never bothers to take suggestions of the seniors in the party. If anyone questions him, he will not hesitate to get rid of him off immediately. He wants to get rid of Konathala, because he openly told him that his mother Vijaya Lakshmi electoral chances are blink in Vizag. So, he believes that Konathala has worked against her in the elections and get rid of him now. But, everyone in the party knows that he is a well-wisher of the party," said Babji.

"It is not true that Konathala has not responded to Jagan’s phone calls. In fact, Konathala has tried to talk to Jagan by phone, but he let his political advisor Somayajulu and senior leader Mysoora Reddy speak on his behalf. Jagan puts a condition to Konathala to talk with him. He wants Konathala condemn the media reports about sending his resignation letter by e-mail, but when Konathala refused he accepts his resignation letter even without talking to him. Jagan is self-destroying his party. He runs the party like his own business and not apolitical party,” said Gandi Babji.
