Jaladeeksha supporting Jagan fast
X
MLC Adireddy Appa Rao, party's youth leader Jakkampudi Raja (son of Jakkampudi Rammohana Rao), Bommana Srinivas and CH Raghava Babu performed Jaladeeksha along with their followers in support of the YSR Congress chief YS Jaganmohan Reddy's indefinite fast in Chanchalguda prison. All of them reached Pushkara Ghat in Rajahmundry and conducted Jaladeeksha for more than two hours in the Godavari waters.

Later, MLC Appa Rao fired at PCC chief Botsa Satyanarayana for his frequent change of stand on the Telangana issue. He ridiculed Botsa for criticizing Jagan and asked him not to forget that it was only because of late YS Rajasekhar Reddy, four of his family members have been able to be in respectable posts.

The support for Jagan who has undertaken fast protesting the way Congress dealt the bifurcation of the state has been increasing in the Seemandhra region. The impact of his deeksha will more than anyone could expect and surely mounts pressure on Congress leadership.
