Nellore:Newly elected Pellakuru ZPTC member and senior YSRC leader Kamireddy Satyanarayana Reddy was released from Nellore Central Jail on Thursday after spending nearly 180 days in judicial custody. He had contested the election while in jail.

Addressing the media after reaching the YSRC district office, he alleged that the coalition government had foisted 19 cases against him out of political vendetta and subjected him to harassment. He claimed that people had backed him in the election despite the cases and his prolonged incarceration.

Satyanarayana Reddy said he had won by a margin of 1,719 votes without spending money or distributing liquor, describing the result as a reflection of public support.

He also alleged that the nomination papers of eight MPTC candidates had been torn during the filing process. Despite several hurdles, his party had won two MPTC seats, he said.

Crediting YSRC president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s fighting spirit for his determination, he thanked his family, party leaders and workers for campaigning on his behalf while he was in jail.

He pledged to work for Pellakuru's development and continue raising people's issues.
