Sakshi Media’s Criticism of Pawan’s Trek

Sakshi, the media house known for supporting the YCP, took a sharp dig at Pawan Kalyan’s pilgrimage. They described his trek as “overaction,” with the headline: “Pawan Kalyan’s Overaction on Tirumala Trip.” The media outlet criticized the brief closure of the Alipiri stairway during his journey, claiming it caused inconvenience to the public for 30 minutes.

Pawan Kalyan’s Fans Hit Back

Pawan’s devoted fans didn’t stay silent. They quickly took to social media, lambasting Sakshi’s coverage. One passionate fan commented, “If it were Jagan Mohan Reddy trekking to Tirumala, Sakshi would have showered him with praises. They wouldn’t mind if the Alipiri route was closed for hours for Pulivendula MLA Jagan. Yet, when it’s Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan, a 30-minute closure sparks criticism.”

Fans also pointed out that Jagan canceled his Tirumala visit due to concerns about public reception. Many saw Sakshi’s criticism as a personal attack orchestrated by the media to undermine Pawan’s spiritual devotion and his growing influence in politics.

Sakshi: Social Media War Intensifies
