Jagan shocked by YSRCP’s humiliating defeat – Telugu News

In a candid address to the media following the unexpected defeat of the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) in the 2024 and hra Pradesh elections, party chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy reflected on the outcome. The results, which took the party by surprise, prompted Jagan to highlight the extensive social measures and reforms implemented by his government.

Addressing the audience, Jagan highlighted the transformative impact of his government’s initiatives, which have benefited over 53,00,000 women, 26,00,000 elderly and disabled people, and provided support to farmers, motorists and fishermen. He highlighted significant changes in education and commitment to alleviating the plight of the poor, comparing the party’s manifesto to sacred texts in terms of guiding principles.

Expressing surprise at the vote outcome, Jagan questioned the disconnect between the government’s efforts and the election results, wondering about the unforeseen shift in public opinion. Despite the setback, he maintained a respectful stance towards the democratic process, acknowledging the people’s verdict and congratulating his rivals Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan.

Jagan Mohan Reddy concluded his speech with a message of resilience, urging his party to take a bold step forward and learn from this experience. His speech reflected a mixture of disappointment, determination and respect for the democratic will, emphasizing the importance of moving forward with the lessons learned from the surprising election results.

However, in a subsequent press conference, Jagan’s tone changed. Instead of graciously accepting his loss, he alleged that there was a conspiracy behind his defeat, while admitting that there was no evidence to support his claims. He declared that only God knows the truth. Notably, Jagan used to refer to Pawan Kalyan as ‘Datta Puttrudu’, but addressed him as ‘Pawan Kalyan garu’ for the first time, offering his congratulations to Chandrababu Naidu garu, Pawan Kalyan garu and the BJP for their significant victory.

Jagan also said that being in opposition was not new to him, having spent most of his political career in opposition, except for the last five years. He said he fought hard and went through more than anyone else, adding that he was ready to take on any new challenges that might come his way. This statement hinted at his fear of potential legal problems, particularly in the illegal assets case and the YS Vivekananda Reddy murder case.
