“Why did Pawan Kalyan not welcome the decision to make Visakhapatnam as the executive capital? Was it because he was defeated in Gajuwaka?,” he asked, and said that the JSP president had no any right to tour north Andhra.

Amarnath said the film actor would not know even the names of JSP leaders in Visakhapatnam district.

He also questioned Pawan Kalyan as to why he did not stop privatisation of Visakhapatnam steel plant, oppose Chandrababu when the latter demolished 40 temples during the TDP pregime, bungled the Polavaram project in the greed to get commissions, refused to talk on special category status for Andhra Pradesh, and failed to appreciate Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy who was making special efforts to resolve the kidney ailments issue in Uddhanam of Srikakulam district.

“Pawan Kalyan should apologize to the volunteers for humiliating them. He says he is son of a police constable but did not respond even when 40 policemen were injured recently. He should also clarify his stand to steel workers,” he stated.
