Deputy Chief Minister and Jana Sena Party (JSP) chief Pawan Kalyan shared lunch with an elderly woman, Pothula Perantalu, at the party office on Friday (May 10, 2025).
During the previous general elections, the woman from Kotha Isukapalli village of U. Kothapalli mandal in Pithapuram constituency had made a vow to Goddess Vegulamma for the success of Mr. Pawan Kalyan. She saved her pension money and used it to fulfil her vow by offering a ‘garaga’ (a traditional ornament or offering) worth ₹27,000 to the goddess.
