Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy, a former congress forest minister and strong supporter of YSRC president Jaganmohan Reddy says that the over confidence and one sided reports by the Sakshi Channel and Sakshi newspaper had ruined the YSRC poll prospects in 2014 general elections.

Peddi Reddy, now an YSRC MLA and one who was detested by CM Kiran Kumar Reddy in the past m, says that the news channel and newspaper had over rated and given different picture to YSRC president which made him ‘over confident about the poll prospects.

When he found that the Sakshi reporter was not around at an event in Sadamu recently the YSRC MLA said ‘ Sakshi had been known as hand bill of YSRC and all of its publications and the news channel reports had ruined the party workers with over rating and lazy enough to ignore the warnings about the tricks of TDP.

TDP had effectively used the ABN and ETC channels to conduct a counter campaign against Sakshi and YSRC, he said.
