Another Kadapa District MLA Joins TDP
YSRCP has suffered another big blow. After losing four of its MLA'S now the party has lost another MLA. T Jayaramulu, MLA from Badvel in Kadapa district, native of YSRC president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy defected to the ruling party.
Jayaramulu met chief minister Chandrababu and joined the party along with his followers. Addressing media Jayaramulu said that Badvel constituency is backward in many aspects and said he joined the TDP only for the sake of "development" of his constituency.
He further revealed that Chandrababu had assured to develop the Badvel constituency and also focus on the higher education for Dalits and their children. Jayaramulu said that he will resign and face the election if circumstances compel him for the elections.
With this, the total number of YSRC MLAs to switch sides has gone to five. Jayaramulu's desertion is a shock to the YSRCP because the party has declared that there would be no more desertions from the party.
Jayaramulu is the second legislator from Kadapa district, who had jumped the fence. Already Jammalamadugu MLA C Adinarayana Reddy along with his MLC brother C Narayana Reddy had joined TDP.
