Congress MP Lagadapati Rajagopal who is known for making sensational statements has said that the TDP has conspired to reduce the influence of Rajya Sabha member Chiranjeevi.

Talking to the media on Saturday, he said it was as part of this conspiracy that TDP has given tickets to the candidates of Chiranjeevi’s community in 3 seats. He said because of this, same community candidates of Congress and TDP fought against each other in those three constituencies, so that the YSR Congress was benefited.

On the by-poll results, Lagadapati said they were as per his expectations. Stating that the credibility of TDP has touched an all time low, Lagadapati said the by-elections proved that in future the fight would be between the Congress and the YSR Congress.

Stating that the YSRCP has benefited only because of the tears of Y S Vijayamma, Lagadapati said that sympathy could be cashed upon only one time. It would not work again and again. He has also stated that if Jagan was not arrested, his party would have won only 8 seats.

It may be recalled that Lagadapati’s survey on by-elections has come true. Talking to the media 3 days ago, he said the YSRCP would win 12 to 16
