Power star and Jana Sena Party chief Pawan Kalyan has allotted two Lok Sabha seats and seven assembly seats to each of the Communist parties – CPI and CPI (M) as part of the electoral understanding for the April 11 general elections.
But he did not fulfil his alliance dharma and cheated the CPI by violating the seat adjustment agreement.
According to reports, the announcement of Jana Sena Party candidates for Nuzvid assembly seat and Vijayawada parliamentary seat without bothering to talk to the CPI which was allotted these seats as per the alliance agreement.
The CPI has fielded Akkineni Vanaja, its Krishna district party secretary as the candidate for Nuzvid assembly seat.
Later, Pawan Kalyan cancelled the seat allotted to the CPI and promised to compensate the loss by allotting Vijayawada Lok Sabha seat.
Reluctantly, the CPI accepted the proposal and announced the candidature of popular advocate Chalasani Ajay Kumar as MP candidate.
But suddenly, the Jana Sena chief changed his mind on Saturday. He cancelled the Vijayawada MP seat as well and announced the name of Muttamsetti Prasad for the same. This has terribly upset the CPI leaders.
Having no other option, the CPI decided to field the candidate for Vijayawada (West) seat, which it had once represented. The party leaders are angry with Pawan Kalyan for cheating them!
