NDA Faces Bold Warning from Roja: “Vaddi Tho Saha Istham”
Roja Warns NDA: Bold Claims and Heated Statements
In a surprising turn of events, YSR Congress Party (YCP) leader Roja has issued a stern warning to the ruling NDA alliance. Typically, such strong statements come from opposition parties closer to elections, but Roja’s remarks have created a political stir just seven months after the polls.
Speaking at a public meeting, Roja accused the central government of targeting YCP supporters through police cases and jail terms. She asserted that these actions would not deter the party’s determination to return to power in Andhra Pradesh.
Roja’s Bold Statement to NDA
Roja’s fiery words caught public attention as she proclaimed:
“File as many cases as you want. Jail us as long as you wish. But when Jagan becomes the Chief Minister again, we will return your actions with interest.”
In Telugu, she added:
“Maa government mallivachaaka meeku vaddi tho saha ichestham.”
This statement reflects Roja’s confidence in YCP’s resurgence. However, critics argue that her claims lack logical foundation, given the current political landscape.
Political Backlash and Public Reactions
Roja’s warning has drawn sharp reactions from NDA supporters. They pointed out that it has been less than a year since the elections, yet YCP leaders are already issuing warnings about future governance.
Additionally, NDA critics remarked that Roja’s focus should be on her constituency. Having lost the Nagari Assembly seat by a margin of over 45,000 votes this year—after a narrow win of 2,700 votes in 2019—they argue she should prioritize regaining her political footing.
One NDA supporter commented:
“If Roja is warning us about the next term, what might we achieve during the remaining 4.5 years of absolute power?”
Jagan and YCP’s Vision
Roja’s statements echo the sentiments of YCP leader Jagan Mohan Reddy, who has also expressed confidence in returning to power. However, allegations of blaming EVMs and overconfidence in securing future governance have been criticized as weaknesses within the party.
While YCP leaders remain optimistic about their political comeback, detractors believe this approach could alienate the public and hurt their credibility.
Conclusion
Roja’s bold proclamation has ignited a heated political debate in Andhra Pradesh. While her confidence resonates with YCP loyalists, critics see it as premature and misplaced. The coming years will reveal whether her predictions hold true or if they backfire on the party.
