As Kadapa Member of Parliament Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy is questioning the reason for the suspension of his lieutenant and Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) General Secretary, Ambati Ram Babu, Union Law Minister M. Veerappa Moily said the MP's recent activities were “not in the best interests of the party.”
Mr. Moily was replying to a question from journalists here on Monday on the reported remarks of Mr. Reddy against Congress president Sonia Gandhi and Chief Minister K. Rosaiah over his “odarpu yatra.” The high command was awaiting a report from the APCC on the issue, Mr. Moily said.
Mr. Rosaiah, who made a sudden visit to the capital on Sunday night, had discussions with Mr. Moily and Ms. Gandhi on the developments relating to Mr. Reddy's yatra and arrest of Telugu Desam Party president N. Chandrababu Naidu by the Maharashtra government on the Babli issue.
However, he refused to talk to the media.
