Jana Sena chief and Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister, Pawan Kalyan, has fiercely responded to allegations regarding the encroachment of “Kodi Cheruvu” (a local lake) in Hyderabad. Speaking from his residence, Pawan Kalyan challenged Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, stating that if anyone can prove he occupied the lake area, he will legally hand over the property to the government immediately. He added that the state is fully welcome to seize the land, but warned that private individuals trespassing on the property unlawfully would face severe legal consequences.
The press conference was organized at Pawan Kalyan’s residence after police denied permission for Jana Sena to hold its scheduled Telangana Formation Day public meeting at Gachibowli. Addressing those questioning his party’s presence in Telangana, the actor-politician asserted that he would not be intimidated by empty political threats. He emphasized that injecting regional bias into every issue harms national unity, proudly reminding critics that Jana Sena was among the early voices to stand up for Telangana’s causes.
Pawan Kalyan further emphasized his long-standing bond with the region, pointing out past actions like his financial donations to the Kondagattu temple and his early political battles for the local communities. Reaffirming his political trajectory, he announced that Jana Sena is here to stay in Telangana politics and will actively field candidates in the upcoming Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) elections, standing resilient against ongoing political attacks and threats.
