TPN, Andhra Pradesh: In a recent critique aimed at Janasena chief Pawan Kalyan, Kapu leader Mudragada Padmanabham has raised questions about Kalyan’s entry into politics from the film industry. Mudragada Padmanabham’s criticism has intensified ever since Pawan Kalyan aligned with the YSRCP.
Padmanabham posed a rhetorical question, asking whether Pawan Kalyan ventured into politics solely for monetary gain, transitioning from his career in movies. He further delved into historical events, recalling Chandrababu Naidu’s alleged mistreatment during the Kapu movement. He lambasted Pawan Kalyan for aligning with Chandrababu Naidu, accusing Naidu of suppressing the Kapu movement and recounting personal hardships endured by Padmanabham’s family, including imprisonment under Naidu’s regime.
The criticisms were voiced during a spiritual meeting of YSRCP Kapu workers in Undi, where Padmanabham was accompanied by YSRCP MLA candidate PVL Narsimharaju.
Padmanabham expressed disappointment that Pawan Kalyan did not raise objections or question Chandrababu Naidu despite the alleged mistreatment of his family. He conveyed frustration at Kalyan’s decision to align with the YSRCP under Jagan Mohan Reddy’s leadership, questioning Kalyan’s rationale for joining forces with individuals whom Padmanabham perceives as questionable.
In a direct address to Pawan Kalyan, Padmanabham sought clarification on Kalyan’s political aspirations and achievements, questioning whether Kalyan has secured an MLA position or made significant statewide contributions to merit such a political alliance. These remarks underscore a broader skepticism and scrutiny of Pawan Kalyan’s political journey and affiliations.
