Andhra Pradesh: YSRCP to field former MLA's wife Dasari Sudha in Badvel bypoll

YSRCP General Secretary Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy said that the party was sticking to its tradition of giving the election ticket to the deceased MLA's wife, which leaves Dasari Venkata Subbaiah's wife Dasari Sudha.

The Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP) General Secretary Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy on Tuesday announced that Dasari Sudha will be the party candidate for the Badvel assembly bypoll scheduled for October 30."The party sticks to the tradition of giving tickets to the family person of the deceased MLA, which leaves Dasari Venkata Subbaiah's wife Dasari Sudha as a natural choice. Should the TDP (Telegu Desam Party) follow the tradition, the election would be unanimous, and if the Opposition fields a candidate, we are certain to win by a huge margin," said Sajjala.Further, the ruling party leader said that the election is an opportunity to say what the government has done in the last two years and there is a need to know what public opinion is like."The results of a series of elections from 2019 to date have proved that the people are always on the side of Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and will continue the same,’’ said Sajjala.ALSO READ: How YSRC swept the rural local bodies election in Andhra Pradesh

On the other hand, responding to the comments made by Jana Sena Party chief Pawan Kalyan, he asserted that the state government is trying to do good for the film industry by being a facilitator with the online ticket system."While a few sections of the industry are welcoming the government’s ideas, Pawan Kalyan has been trying to sling mud. He said that some prominent people in the film industry consider him a huge burden to the industry, and fear of getting in trouble for being with him," he said.ALSO READ: YSR Telangana Party chief YS Sharmila to launch 'Praja Prasthana Yatra' from October 20
