Jana Sena Party chief and power star Pawan Kalyan, who tries put up the posture of a dignified person, has also proved that he is no better than any other typical loud-mouth politician.
Reacting to a sharp criticism made by YSR Congress party MLA from Bhimavaram assembly constituency in West Godavari district Grandhi Srinivas, the Jana Sena chief described him as a barking and biting dog.
In a video statement on Friday, Pawan said: “When we go in the streets, some dogs bark loudly and some dogs even bite us. When a dog bites us, we cannot retaliate by biting the dog. We call up the municipality staff and lodge a complaint. We shall wait till the municipal van comes and takes away the barking and biting dogs.”
He asked the Jana Sena Party workers to maintain restraint.
“I assure you. One day, a municipal van comes and picks up this kind of barking and biting dogs. Till then, let us maintain restraint,” he said, referring to the criticism made by the YSRC MLA.
Granthi Srinivas, who defeated Pawan Kalyan, made some sharp comments on Pawan earlier in the day following clashes between Jana Sena Party workers and YSRC workers at Matsyapuri village where Jana Sena candidate won the gram panchayat elections.
Srinivas alleged that Pawan Kalyan was instigating his party workers to indulge in violence.
“He is creating anarchy in East Godavari district by provoking youth. Despite a ban by state election commission, his party workers tried to take out a victory rally which led to a fire mishap,” he alleged.
Pawan said Grandhi Srinivas was behaving like a rowdy by abusing him personally.
“What can we expect from such a person who cheated banks and looted public money? We know how to counter the attacks of YSRC people and we don’t keep silent, if he indulges in violence,” Pawan said.
