Hyderabad, August 27: Congress in Andhra Pradesh yesterday welcomed Praja Rajyam chief K Chiranjeevi’s assurance on extending his party’s support to the Congress government in the state if the situation demanded.
“I welcome this and appreciate Chiranjeevi for coming out with such an assurance,” APCC chief D Srinivas told newsmen here.
The PCC chief praised the PRP president saying,”From an acclaimed actor, Chiranjeevi has metamorphosed into a matured politician. He has been making his political statements these days with a lot of maturity.”
Chiranjeevi had promised to extend the support of his party’s 18 MLAs in case ruling Congress suffered a split and posed a threat to Chief Minister K Rosaiah government in view of churnings in the party over dissident Kadapah MP Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy’s yatra.
