YSRCP leaders complain to Andhra DGP over remarks on Jagan’s family
The Story in Brief
A group of YSR Congress Party leaders lodged a complaint with Andhra Pradesh Director General of Police Harish Kumar Gupta on Saturday, 14 November, accusing Jana Sena Party supporters of making obscene and derogatory remarks against party president and former chief minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy's family members on social media platform X. A delegation submitted a pen drive containing evidence. The leaders alleged the Vijayawada cybercrime police did not register an FIR even 60 hours after receiving a complaint.
The complaint came after both the ruling TDP and the YSR Congress had issued advisories asking party workers not to comment on political opponents' personal lives, following social media discussions about Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan's reported separation from his wife. YSRCP leaders said Jagan had directed party cadre not to comment on Kalyan's marital affairs, but Jana Sena members allegedly made lewd remarks about Jagan's family. The YSRCP leaders warned they would pursue legal action if the police failed to register cases.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The Hindu and Deccan Chronicle both report the YSRCP complaint in similar detail, while the Economic Times frames the story as a breakdown of a rare truce between the ruling TDP and the opposition. The Hindu leads with the complaint and the police inaction allegation, quoting YSRCP leaders directly. Deccan Chronicle adds that Jagan had directed his cadre not to comment on Pawan Kalyan's marital affairs, a detail the other two sources omit. The Economic Times gives the broader political context: both parties had issued advisories against personal comments, and Jana Sena supporters broke the truce. The uniform facts are the complaint, the evidence submitted, and the threat of legal action. The open question is whether the cybercrime police will register an FIR.
