A few weeks ago, the TDP workers campaigned using Jr NTR's picture in the heart of Kuppam, the constituency of Chandrababu Naidu.
Later there were incidents in Chittoor district where the flags with Jr NTR's images were waved.
Minister Perni Nani expressed his opinion that Lokesh is trying to divert the focus of TDP cadre from Jr NTR by making verbal attacks on YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
"While every worker in TDP is waiting to see Jr NTR as the party leader, Lokesh is making futile attempts to prove that he is enough to lead it. He is performing to pull the people's attention by addressing CM with disrespectful words. Lokesh is mad. We cannot control the maniacs", said Perni Nani.
He also said that everyone is feeling pity seeing Lokesh's plight.
"Lokesh's father grabbed the party by backstabbing Sr NTR. Now both father and son are shivering with fear, if Jr NTR backstabs them and grabs the party. What can we do other than feeling pity about them?", Nani continued.
"Chandrababu is tasting the curse of Karma. All the TDP workers and leaders would bring Jr NTR into the scene and make him backstab both father and son in near future", the Minister concluded.
