YS Jagan Discusses Supreme Court Ruling on Violence in Local Body Elections

YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) president and former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy held a meeting with senior party leaders to discuss the Supreme Court’s ruling and directions concerning alleged irregularities and violence during local body elections. Jagan said the Supreme Court had expressed concern over the state of democracy and taken note of reports of electoral irregularities and violence, prompting it to issue directions to the State Election Commission (SEC).

During the meeting, Jagan accused Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and the ruling establishment of deliberately orchestrating violence, alleging that incidents had continued despite the Supreme Court’s directions. He also claimed that violence was occurring during MPTC and ZPTC election-related activities and accused the government of misusing the police. Jagan praised party workers and leaders for standing firm and urged them to gather credible evidence of incidents on the ground. He called for the evidence to be presented before the courts and encouraged party leaders to continue their legal fight to safeguard democratic values.
