Hyderabad, Aug.3 (NSS): Primary Education Minister S. Sailajanath has said that Congress was not
bothered about the statements being made by the YSR Congress leaders.
Sailajanath was reacting to the remarks of YSRC leader and Nellore MP Mekapati Raja Mohan
Reddy that several Congress leaders were in constant touch with them. Dismissing the remarks, he said
that no one would leave the Congress to join the Jagan’s group.
Asked about Congress party’s attitude on Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, Sailajanath has said that YSR
remained a Congress leader till his last breath. When asked to respond about remarks of Rajya Sabha
member Dr K V P Ramachandra Rao on the absence of YSR’s photograph in the Youth Congress team
investiture ceremony, Sailajanath said that it was his personal opinion and the Congress had nothing
to do with it. Asserting that the State would remain united, he said that no discussions were being held
about the State’s bifurcation in New Delhi.
On the judgment of Supreme Court on fees reimbursement, Sailajanath has said there was
need to think about the suggestions of the court. He said there was need for the government to start
professional colleges itself and explained that only then quality education could be offered to the poor.
It may be mentioned that Dr K V P had expressed strong resentment about the absence of the
photograph of YSR at the oath taking ceremony of the new Yfouth Congress office bearers. Several
party leaders including MPs Madhu Yashki and V Hanhumantha Rao have called KVP covert of Jagan.
