Vamsi’s Jagan embrace prompts notice

                                                                
Telugu Desam (Vijayawada, Urban) president Vallabhneni Vamsi’s public embrace of YSR Congress chief Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy in Vijayawada on Friday has left his party higher-ups irate and prompted a show-cause notice. TD chief N. Chandrababu Naidu issued the show-cause notice on Saturday, asking for an explanation.
Mr Vamsi’s embrace came at a time when the TD was attacking the Kadapa MP tooth and nail for various sins of omission and commission. The notice stated that the TD has been fighting former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy and Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy’s ‘corruption and murder’ politics. “Your action will send a wrong message,” the notice said.
Meanwhile, Mr Vamsi denied that he received a show-cause notice and said his meeting with Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy was not pre-planned. However, the incident sent shockwaves through the TD, amid reports of an imminent floor crossing by some leaders.
