Congress leader KVP Ramachandra Rao was reckoned as the soul-mate of YS Rajasekhar Reddy. When Jagan quit Congress party, there was a lot of criticism on KVP for not being able to stop Jagan or the entire YS family from walking out of Congress. But many within Congress believed that KVP continued to maintain cordial relations with the YS family.
Regarding the association with YS family, KVP made shocking comments and that’s clear enough that he is not in good touch with them. KVP made these comments when the media confronted him at Gandhi Bhavan.
“YS Rajasekhar Reddy was a great leader and he was a true Congressman till his last breath,” said KVP. When asked about the Vijayamma’s meeting, KVP acknowledged that he had received an invitation and he is definitely attending it.
However, the journalists tried to dig deep into this meeting which is making a lot of noise in the political circles. “Does this meeting have any political significance?” was the question asked by a journalist and KVP replied that “You should ask Vijaya Lakshmi (Vijayamma) this question.”
But the journalists were not convinced. “Since you have good relations and rapport with YS family, you must be knowing about Vijayamma’s meeting,” countered the journalists. Reacting to this KVP added that “If you (journalist) think that I’m close to YS family, then you would not have asked this question.”
