Jagan all set to form a new party?
Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy seems to be all set to split the Congress in Andhra Pradesh and launch a new regional outfit if he is not made the chief minister of the state.
Sources in the Jagan camp said that their leader is expected to announce the launch of a new party on September 2 – the first death anniversary of his father and former chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy – if the high command expels him for his controversial tour of the state.
Jagan’s game plan is clear. With it becoming almost certain that Jagan would leave the Congress sooner or later – be it through disciplinary action or his own will – he could rock the Rosaiah government if he can mobilise the support of 30-40 MLAs. If the Rosaiah government falls, it would lead to mid-term elections.
The Jagan camp feels it is now or never for their leader. He is aware that the Telangana issue will be a crucial factor after December 31, when the Justice B. N. Srikrishna Committee submits its report recommending either a bifurcation of the state or an alternative plan.
In any case, it would push the state into political turmoil again, thereby putting his fight for the chief minister’s post on the backburner.
“He must do what he has to before October. That is why he is pressuring the high command,” a former MLA in the Jagan camp said.
Sources in the PCC said the high command was keenly watching Jagan’s ‘ Odarpu Yatra’. “The high command is giving him a long rope. With every passing day, his tongue is becoming sharper. He has crossed the Lakshman Rekha.
The party might take disciplinary action against him only after the by-elections in Telangana on July 27,” a top leader in the state Congress party said.
According to this leader, the high command believed the euphoria over Jagan would subside soon. “He might be drawing huge crowds, mobilised or otherwise, but that cannot pressure the high command into making him the chief minister.
He has already burnt bridges with Sonia Gandhi. As long as he continues in the Congress, he can never become the chief minister. And if he adopts the same strategy, he might not even get an MP ticket next time,” he added.

Although it is 2010, but this Jagan is plotting for something similar of 70s and 80s where the ‘blackmailing’ politics were very much popular in India (especially in the states where congress was in power). Even if for some reason the cong high command ‘makes’ him the CM of UAP (which seems very unlikely due to the current turmoil in the state), he can’t survive for long, as he will bring and try implementing the agedas of his father. Which were not much popular within the party (i am referring to the party politics) and his agenda of UAP which is again not going to work in T, yes he may get full support of MIM but many of the T cong leaders will be favouring him (as compared to YSR or Rosaiah).
His only choice is to revolt openly and join hands with TDP to become a CM which I don’t think is easily possible, however, the basic principle of the politics is ‘no permanent friends so as no permanent enemies’, TDP might support him as CM form outside against some favours mainly to keep the T issue out for at least till next elections.
In all cases he and hsi family members may retain their respective seats in next elections but his political career will cme to an end very soon. His survival is in the congress and by the congress only. Seniors definitely knew about his father’s attempts some 20-25 years back to become CM etc.

If jagan forms a new party,then congress high command without loosing further time must demerge telangana. Atleast congress will be in a solid position in Telangana with TRS merging with it.Similrly after demerger they must find a near acceptable candidate for seemandhra and make him CM there.in Kadapa there may be some trouble but that can be dealt with a deft hand.Also congress must press CBI into action against jagan, are some of the best ways .

It is time now to bifurcate state for the betterment of all the regions and ground a factionist. If it bifurcated then the group can be splitted into two (based on region), so their leader loses the ground which will help that party, which can form govt. in two new states with the support of the regional parties.

Congress high command is also looking into the Seemandhra leaders. They have become so strong that they stop listening to the high command. They think once Telangana is formed they won’t be that strong and it is easy to control them.

Jagan forming his own outfit is 100 percent good for Telangana. In that case T.R.S. would support congress in Telangana and chiranjeevi in Seemaandhra. Ultimately T.D.P. will have to fight out Jagan for second place. 2009 will be repeated albeit in a different way?

More MPs from regional parties in AP means more influence in Central Govt. Jagan’s new party will sound the death knell for Congress in AP.

I don't care about the future prospects of Jagan but his new party will turn positive for Telangana.
State lo cheddi lu esukunna baccha la ku kooda telusu..ee odaarpu yatra sirf political drama ani..
I am confident that congress high command started thinking of moving its pawns accordingly..and like some said his political career is going to end soon and also the illegal empire that he and his wicked father built all along will be collapsed..THIS IS NOT TOO FAR..What a power Hungry Bugger..
But some charecter less TG GOONDA leaders like Konda's family ect will have to re-shuffle their cards sooner or later instead of chanting Jagan..

YSR lead govt. has illegally leased barite mines, in Khammam dist. TG, of worth 13 LAKH CRORE to YSR son-in-law. Staggering figure. This shows to wat extent YSR family looted the state. Are the govt. agencies are not capable of mining? Why the mining This is nothing but another feudalism. All the property owned by this family should be seized and they should be broght b4 the court of law.
The land leased is in TG. It is property of TG. The resources must be used for the betterment of TG society as a whole not just for the betterment of one family or few handful of Jackals. All Telanganites should fight until all the looters driven out.

Why Jagan is desperate to become CM?
1) Stop formation of Telanagan State.
2) Hide all the mistakes done by YSR during his rule.
3) Protect all the money his family made during YSR rule.
4) He feels he has the right to rule this state called AP because he thinks his father made sure Congress come to power in AP and in Delhi.
5) Advisers are desperate to make more money.
6) Continue water projects that benefit his district and Seema region.
7) Thinking of himself as prince of AP.
Please give me your ideas on why Jagan is desperate to become CM. I feel he is very young to become CM of AP that has 8 crore population.

@Suryapreddy, seems there is a misunderstanding, my post though addressed to you but solely for our MR. SURYA, this is in addition to your question to him on dragging KCR.
Why I wrote this is this man Surya is always fond of bringing in KCR in discussion irrespective of the topic or the news article.

@Syed,
U r right, SA people who oppose T are having nightmares due to KCR.
Several SA people who doesn't know the significance of T agitations, just blame KCR blindly out of deep frustration and Hatred. They get worried that T people are slowly realising the injustice happening to them and are agitating due to KCR leadership.
They are still in dreams that if KCR is finished, T problem is finished, they never realise that there are thousands of people like KCR who will never give up till T is achieved.

Accomodation is getting ready in charlapalli jail for Jagan and all his chemchas for all the scandals and financial frauds committed during YSR rule.
Jagan may share his room with satyam Raju for the collective fraud in Metrorail scam and siphoning of satyam money.
Jagan and his devotees can see him as CM only in their dreams always.

If Leader's defy people, they can't escape God's ire
How true it is? as lord Krishna said wherever and whenever Justice is denied and the powerless is curbed, I will come to your rescue. And this will happen by eliminating every entity involved in the sin. The sin is YSR and Congress party agreed to give telangana but not abiding by it because of the wrong ideology of YSR who chose to betray the Telanagana people and denied them their right to power. Blinded with power, he forgot all his promises and betrayed the people of all the regions. He played the mantra of development by lancing such schemes which were never ever heard from the congress bag. at least for this and for time being people irrespective of region praised him and became fan of him. But what about his promise which he had made before polls. Does his word not have credibility. By not supporting and cooperating with the telangana people he is indirectly favouring the other region. Of course we wanted development, at the same time we did not want people from other regions to rule us. we wanted projects of Telangana to be taken first, instead he prefered their projects first. In all ways he was defying dharma. Thus got knew his cunning mind and had shown him his way and he died. A big justice for Telangana by God. KCR who fasted untodeath was the second step towards justice and a big breakthrough came in the form of Chidambaram's statement, OU burned, agitations erupted on both sides, leaders gave resignation, drought came, floods came, cyclones came, people starved, people died in floods, huge losses in agriculture in Andra is a punishment for those people who backed YSR crooked and cunning ideas of fooling Telangana people. Again OU burned and finally Rosiah's resigned. All is happening because overall the Congress party has betrayed the people of Telangana and in the course of time the party will loose its hold in both regions as it is not credible on its stand. It is only the beginning and hopefully it will only end with the carving of separate Telangana state which will inevitably happen.
SA people are still living in the illusion of being continuously united and are unnecessarily relenting their frustration on KCR, the poor leader who was kicked out of TDP long back for asking a good birth with fat portfolio (TDP is a bunch of Majority SA leadership conglomeration and minority opportunistic political job seekers licking the boots of Naidu for their survival in Telangana).
KCR is only a medium to acquire the separate TG. SA people should realize merely saying SA will not become SA, they should implement in spirit and letter which has not happen even with Chiru the champion of SA. He too feels SA means only Andhra and forgets the other part Telangana when it comprises of more than 60% of AP. Only God should save these falthu leaders of SA who are just opportunistic without having any guts to face the people or say the right world to the people. How come people are choosing these mangoose as their leaders who change their talk every now and then?
Be it Telangana or Be it Andhra or Rayalaseema all regions should develop equally. But that has not happen and of couse will not happen as long as they are at the helm. At least now people in those regions should realize this and leave the TG alone and help their fellow Telugu people to live and develop peacefully without hindering in the way with their strong political lobby and money power. Other wise they will ultimately face the same fate of YSR, or the people of those regions hit by Cyclones, or Jagan or finally Rosaiah.
Jai Hind and Jai Telangana
People should realize one thing. we can not develop ourself in a true spirit at the cost of others. SA people should realize this. You should not utilize your being advantagious in the political or bureaucratic powers, come forward to learn and realize the true lives of the poor in Telangana. we are fighting for our rights, our jobs, our land our water.
SA leadership at the helm over the past 50 years, have done nothing but build great dams for the welfare of the Andhra regions and non for the Telangana. Because constructing dams in telangana will stop water to them. so we were left water starved, our people went to do wage work to live the earning to Bombay and Dubai
noble and right thingking SA leaders and common people should think why people are asking for seperate TG.
