Certain communities owning up to certain political parties is not anything new in our country. This is particularly true with the Regional Parties. In the Telugu States, we have Reddys for YSR Congress, Kammas for TDP, and Velamas for BRS.

Reddy community previously used to support the Congress Party. But after the death of YSR, Congress’s base eroded here and their vote-bank shifted en masse to the Congress. It was even more easy for the Reddy Community because Jagan Mohan Reddy floated the YSR Congress.
YSR Congress winning 151 seats out of the 175 seats in AP Assembly in 2019 was their moment of glory.

But what happened later is something they could not comprehend.
Jagan Mohan Reddy’s rule was a synonym to a disaster with no vision or no accomplishments to his credit. In five years, he is confined only to distributing freebies and could not have any mark of his on the state.

And then, there was a Thuglaq idea of three capitals and razing down Government Buildings.
The result is there to see YSR Congress has been reduced from 151 to just eleven in the recent elections.
These insults are not enough for that community.
Sharmila’s revolt against Jagan is a big disappointment for the community. Immediately after coming to power, it is clear that the murder of YS Vivekananda Reddy (YSR’s own brother) is the work of insiders.
Jagan withdrew his petition for CBI inquiry and later shielded the accused, MP Avinash Reddy – everything made it clear that it is the job of insiders of the YSR family and YSR Congress.
Sharmila and Viveka’s daughter Sunitha fighting against their own government for justice in YSR’s brother’s murder case is something indigestible for the Reddy Community.
The elections are over and the results are out but the agony is not over yet.
Jagan took their pain to the next level by going to court against his own mother and sister. It is clear that he is trying to evade Sharmila her rightful share in their father’s properties.
Reddys always call Jagan names like Tiger and Lion. But things that happened in the last five years were pathetic to the core.
Reddy Community Hangs Its Head In Shame!
Jagan, Sharmila, and Vijaya Lakshmi are openly washing their dirty linen making allegations. Jagan is openly pushing his leaders and his Sakshi media to accuse, abuse, and character assassinates Sharmila and Vijaya Lakshmi.
Communities do align with Political Parties because they identify themselves with those parties and they take pride in their achievements.
Reddy Community is unable to digest what Jagan Mohan Reddy brought them to.
The Community now hangs its head in shame for Jagan’s cheap behavior. Going forward, things will turn even worse when Jagan’s petition against Vijaya Lakshmi and Sharmila comes to hearing in NCLT.
Ups and downs are quite common in politics. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. When it comes to political decisions and events, sometimes you take good ones, and sometimes you go wrong.
Even the supporting communities and the supporters continue to support the parties and leaders. But this ruckus dragging family members and saving the accused in a family member’s murder is something very disturbing and even hardcore supporters will struggle to support.
In days to come, things may get even worse. We may see the arrest of Avinash Reddy in Viveka’s case. Jagan going to jail in disproportionate assets cases may also be a possibility.
