Summary: Pawan Kalyan, leader of Janasena party, was arrested at Anumanchipalli after a clash between police and supporters occurred in Jaggayyapeta.
Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan passionately supports and goes to great lengths for TDP chief N. Chandrababu Naidu, raising questions about his motives and his own political identity.
Nara Lokesh defends his father, Chandrababu Naidu, against corruption allegations, stating that the accusations are false and that Naidu's focus is on the progress of the state and country. Additionally, Lokesh criticizes CM Jagan and challenges him to disclose his own pending cases, while also daring the ruling government to arrest him.
Telugu Desam Party chief Nara Chandrababu Naidu's arrest is expected to continue for some time, causing political drama in Andhra Pradesh, leading Pawan Kalyan to position himself as the voice of the Jana Sena-TDP alliance until Naidu is released, potentially resulting in the suspension or cancellation of director Harish Shankar's filming schedule.
During a press conference, TDP General Secretary Nara Lokesh's mention of his brother Pawan Kalyan as his support while leading the party in the absence of their father, Chandrababu Naidu, displayed ignorance and undermined the importance of TDP leaders.
Pawan Kalyan has been warned by the Kapu community for his excessive support of Chandrababu Naidu, leading him to temporarily suspend his political activities and return to the film set.
The arrest of former Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu has caused a shift in the political landscape of Andhra Pradesh, leading to a coalition between Pawan Kalyan's Jana Sena party and the TDP in the upcoming elections, while the release of Balakrishna's film "Bhagavanth Kesari" may not face any issues despite the charged political environment.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy accused his rival, Telugu Desam Party President N. Chandrababu Naidu, of being the mastermind behind the multi-crore skill development scam, providing evidence of Naidu's alleged role and questioning the silence of Janasena chief Pawan Kalyan on the matter.
Janasena chief Pawan Kalyan heavily criticized AP CM Jagan for his behavior and urged the YSRC cadre to have his mental state evaluated, as the Japanese ambassador warned that Jagan's actions would deter business investments in the state.
Pawan Kalyan aspires to see Chandrababu Naidu and Lokesh behind bars in order to assert his authority over the state, framing the battle as Jagan vs Pawan, although he may be overestimating his strength and popularity.
While YS Jagan faced his arrest without drama or protests, Chandrababu Naidu's arrest led to widespread demonstrations, highlighting the difference in their responses and potentially impacting their political futures.
Telangana senior leader Motkupalli Narasimhulu expresses full support for Chandrababu Naidu during his arrest, criticizing CM Jagan for his actions and questioning his ability to stay in power forever.
Pawan Kalyan was advised by the TDP and its allied media to remain silent during his Varahi Yatra in order to prevent overshadowing the news of Chandrababu Naidu's arrest, leaving him in a situation where he is unable to act independently but still claims to lead the TDP.
AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi praises CM Jagan and criticizes TDP chief Chandrababu's arrest, while expressing interest in contesting elections in Andhra Pradesh.
Pawan Kalyan remained composed and delivered a speech emphasizing his commitment to the TDP and his determination to prevent Jagan's return to power, while also sharing personal insights and expressing hope for Chandrababu's sincerity.
Director Boyapati, known for his strong-willed nature, faced controversy over political dialogues in the movie "Skanda," leading to adjustments and concerns about releasing the film during a sensitive period in Andhra Pradesh.
The trip to Delhi by Jagan Mohan Reddy, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, holds significant political importance as he is expected to present documents related to Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan's alleged involvement in scandals and transactions in Dubai, Singapore, and Russia to the Central Power Center. This information, which could potentially put Pawan Kalyan's film and political careers at risk, has already reached the corridors of power in Delhi.
Jana Sena Party president Pawan Kalyan's potential exit from the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance could lead to backlash from the BJP and increased scrutiny from central agencies.
Lok Satta Jayaprakash Narayan admires Jagan for his direct accessibility of funds, effective governance at the grassroots level, and introduction of a new pension scheme, but disapproves of the practice of implicating political opponents in legal cases and incarcerating them.
YS Jagan, the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, denies any grudge or revenge politics against Chandrababu Naidu and claims that his arrest in a fraud case was not an act of political vendetta, but rather a result of ED, IT, and CBI proving his corruption.
The decision of Pawan Kalyan, the president of Jana Sena Party, to ally with the Telugu Desam Party has caused discontent among party leaders, leading to resignations and exploration of other political options.
