Andhra Pradesh BJP state president Kanna Lakshminarayana seems to have taken a U turn on three capitals proposal by the Jagan Mohan Reddy government.
When Jagan Mohan Reddy spoke in Assembly indicating at creating three capitals for the state, Kanna Lakshminarayana welcomed the proposal. There were several BJP leaders who welcomed this move.
Except the former TDP leaders who are now with the BJP, every other BJP leader from the State welcomed the three capitals proposal. They welcomed the High Court for Kurnool and wanted better treatment for Visakhapatnam.
However, with some of the Amaravati farmers meeting him in Guntur on Tuesday, the AP BJP chief had taken U turn finding fault with the chief minister on the three capitals.
Kanna Lakshminarayana even promised to take up the issue with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and ensure justice done to them.
Former TDP leader and former Union Minister Y S Chowdary, had already indicated at taking up the issue with the Prime Minister and get justice done to the farmers. Now, with Kanna also changing his stand, it is to be seen how the BJP national leadership would handle this issue.
The BJP leaders from Uttarandhra and Rayalaseema are happy with Jagan Mohan Reddy’s proposal on three capital and this positive and split view of the leaders from these regions are to be taken into consideration while dealing with the issue.
