The Telangana Jana Sena has strongly criticized BRS MLC Kalvakuntla Kavitha over her recent comments about Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister and Jana Sena leader Pawan Kalyan. Kavitha had claimed that Pawan Kalyan is not a serious politician and lamented that he "unfortunately" became the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.
In response, Telangana Jana Sena party in-charge Shankar Goud has demanded that Kavitha issue a public apology for her remarks. He stated that Kavitha has no moral standing to criticize Pawan Kalyan, given her own political history.
Addressing the media, Shankar Goud said, “No one has the right to talk about Pawan Kalyan in such a disrespectful manner. Kavitha, who was involved in the liquor scam and even went to jail, should not speak out of turn.” He further warned that Kavitha should “keep her mouth in check” and avoid making unwarranted comments about the respected leader.
Goud's comments reflect growing tensions between the Jana Sena and the BRS party, as political discourse in Telangana heats up ahead of upcoming elections. He emphasized that any further disrespect towards Pawan Kalyan would not be tolerated by the party.
Political observers believe that these remarks are likely to escalate the ongoing rivalry between the two parties, especially given the significance of Pawan Kalyan’s role in Andhra Pradesh politics.
