Kapu Leaders Back Satya's Criticism of TD-JS Alliance
Some leaders in the Kapu community are upset because they feel that the Jana Sena party, which is in an alliance with the Telugu Desam party, is not being treated fairly.
They say that Jana Sena is not getting enough nominated posts, which are special positions given by the government.
These leaders, like DN Ramesh and J Nagababu, have been supporting Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan.
They think that Pawan Kalyan should ask for more posts for his party and also work on making the party stronger by appointing more coordinators.
They believe that the Kapu community can help bring other communities like BCs, SCs, and STs into the Jana Sena party.
The leaders feel that the current alliance is not fair to Jana Sena and this needs to be fixed.
Bolisetti Satyanarayana criticized the Telugu Desam party for not following alliance norms with Jana Sena.
Kapu leaders backed Satyanarayana's remarks, stating that Jana Sena is not getting a fair share of nominated posts.
DN Ramesh noted that the Kapu community had sought proper recognition before the 2014 polls, leading to the Pithapuram assembly seat being given to Kapus.
J Nagababu criticized the lack of representation for Jana Sena at the grassroots level and warned Pawan Kalyan about forging an alliance with Naidu.
Kapu leaders believe that the Kapu community can organize other communities into the Jana Sena fold and that Pawan Kalyan should act accordingly.
