YSRCP leader and ex-minister Mareppa seems to be upset with his party president Jagan Mohan Reddy and has also made few controversial remarks on him. "Jagan has no political experience, had been to jail on the charges of illegal assets case. Jagan also changed his words on Telangana statehood, now the party got completely vanished in that region."

“There is lot of difference between Jagan and YSR. Konda Surekha was very close to YSR, she even sacrificed everything for the sake of Jagan and he ditched her. Dalits and other minorities are treated very badly in this party and Jagan's policy is use and throw,”added Mareppa.

These remarks came like a jolt to the YSRCP as Mareppa is one of key leaders ever since its inception. Insiders of party feel, Jagan has his agenda of only drawing image with the sentiment of YSR.
