YSRCP says it won’t approve Vijayasai Reddy’s resignation

Amaravati/New Delhi, Jan 25: The YSRCP on Saturday said that the party did not approve the resignation of V Vijayasai Reddy from the Rajya Sabha, but respected his choice.
Earlier in the day, Reddy resigned as a member of the Upper House and announced he was quitting politics due to “personal reasons”.
He met Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar at his residence in New Delhi and submitted his resignation.
In a post on ‘X’, YSRCP called Reddy a pillar of strength for the party since its inception.
“Even though we do not approve of your decision, we still respect your choice. You have been one of the pillars of strength for our party since its inception, standing with us through both tough times and triumphs,” said YSRCP.
On Friday, Reddy said that he would not join any political party and would pursue a future in agriculture.
The YS Jagan Mohan Reddy-led YSRCP stated that it respects his decision to step away from politics and pursue his passion for horticulture.
“Your contributions will always be cherished. Wishing you the very best in your future endeavours,” it added.
Party leader Maddila Gurumoorthy urged him on Saturday to reconsider his decision, emphasising the importance of unity in securing YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s re-election as chief minister.
“Definitely, we all wish that he (Vijayasai Reddy) continues in our party. Please do not exit from politics. Experienced leaders like you are necessary for the party. To make Jagan CM again, I’ve requested that we all work together,” Gurumoorthy told reporters outside Reddy’s residence in the national capital.
In response to the appeal, Reddy said he would “think and talk about it.” Gurumoorthy emphasised that there were no internal issues within YSRCP and expressed confidence that Reddy, known for his boldness, would overcome any challenges. (PTI)
