One and a half months before elections, politics in Andhra Pradesh took a
new turn Friday with Telugu film actor Pawan Kalyan floating a new
political party, the Jana Sena.
Pawan, younger brother of central
minister and Congress leader K. Chiranjeevi, said his party may or may
not contest the coming elections.
Addressing thousands of his
fans here, he gave a call - "Congress hatao desh bachao (Remove the
Congress, save the nation)" - on behalf of Telugu people to the nation,
saying they were hurt by the manner in which the party divided the
state.
Stating that he is ready to join hands with any party
except Congress, the actor said he would strive to bring stability in
both Telangana and Seemandhra.
Amid thunderous cheers by his fans, the popular actor vowed to do politics of principle to bring a change in the society.
In
his two-hour-long speech punched with powerful dialogues in a filmi
style, Pawan was harsh on his criticism of Congress and also targeted
Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) leaders for whipping up regional
feelings among people.
