The TDP spokesperson Kommareddy Pattabhi Ram who has been recuperating from a physical assault in Vijayawada, the political capital of AP, is back to business. It is known that Pattabhi Ram has been a thorn in the flesh for the ruling party for constantly targeting them with proper proofs. The TDP leader lashed out at the ruling party chief YS Jagan for behaving in an unconcerned manner despite the prior knowledge of VSP’s privatisation and decided to counter YSRCP’s double standards with proper proofs.
It is known that Kommareddy Pattabhi Ram was attacked by unidentified miscreants while leaving his house in Vijayawada’s Guru Nanak Colony. Around ten attackers vandalised Pattabhi’s car using stones, sticks and rods. However, it was the presence of mind of the TDP leader’s car driver that the latter made it out alive. The TDP spokesperson also suffered serious injuries in the mishap and had been hospitalised. The incident turned sensational in both the Telugu states and the AP CM YS Jaganmohan Reddy had to face strong criticism from all corners. It is being said that Pattabhi is being targeted for putting out facts with proofs in the public domain. In this context, the TDP leader revealed that the privatisation of Vizag Steel Plant is a conspiracy and that he has proofs to substantiate his claims.

The Centre under PM Modi is moving forward with the plans to privatise RINL AKA Vizag Steel Plant and all YSRCP MPs who claim innocence regarding the development actually knew about this in prior, claims Pattabhi. On February 5th, 2020 when YSRCP MP Vemireddy Prabhakar Reddy had questioned in Rajya Sabha whether any joint venture or plan to sell VSP has been made with Japanese or Korean companies? Reacting to this, the Union Steel Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said that a non-binding MoU had been inked with South Korea based POSCO. The following month on March 3rd, 2020 a report was given by the Parliamentary Standing Committee with regards to divestment. Now, Pattabhi has revealed that an MP YS Avinash Reddy who is close to CM YS Jagan has been a member of the said committee. The TDP leader made sensational remarks saying that the YSRCP knew that VSP lands are valuable and hence a plot has been made to grab them.
