The expulsion of senior congress ysr congress politician and former minister kothapalli Subbarayudu for open rebellion has sent a clear message to the party's leaders and cadre that party president and chief minister Y S jagan Mohan reddy will not tolerate any rebellion. Even though he has been bashing the party and the jagan government day in and day out, the YSRC president has been chastised for his silence against breakaway party mp Kanumuru raghu Ramakrishna Raju from Narasapuram.
Despite the fact that everyone knows jagan hasn't expelled Raju from the party because he doesn't want to give the rebel mp a heroic image, the undue delay in getting Raju disqualified or taking action against him has induced some leniency among the other disgruntled elements. Surprisingly, the party has only seen such groups in the east and west godavari districts. The recent death of YSRC MLC Ananta Udaya bhaskar aka Ananta Babu's driver, apparently over a women leader's issue, has tarnished the party's image.
As a result, jagan expelled him from the party and stripped him of his MLC seat. The YSRC leader is now in jail, cooling his heels. The suspension of kothapalli Subbarayudu has delivered yet another strong message to the party's cadre that jagan will take severe measures to quell any internal rebellion. "If jagan is gentle with kothapalli, it would lead to more revolt in the party," a party leader said. The chief minister believes that losing control of the two formerly merged Godavari districts, which account for approximately 35 assembly seats, would be disastrous for the party.
