Ambati meets Lella Appi Reddy in Guntur Sub-Jail

Former Minister and YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) Guntur district president Ambati Rambabu met MLC and party State general secretary Lella Appi Reddy at the Guntur Sub-Jail through the ‘mulaqat’ facility on Monday (November 9, 2026). MLC Talasila Raghuram and Tadikonda constituency coordinator Vanama Bala Vajrababu (Diamond Babu) accompanied him.

Later, speaking to the media, Mr. Rambabu alleged that Mr. Appi Reddy had been implicated in several cases following the incident at Vengalayapalem in Guntur Rural mandal, after the conclusion of the local body elections. He claimed that Mr. Appi Reddy had intervened to prevent an alleged attempt to tamper with ballot boxes and had subsequently been arrested.

He alleged that the cases against Mr. Appi Reddy were politically motivated and accused the ruling alliance leaders of targeting him for raising complaints about alleged electoral irregularities.

Referring to an alleged attack on his residence and the Vengalayapalem incident, Mr. Rambabu said these issues would not be forgotten and asserted that his party would respond to them at an appropriate time.

He said the party would not be deterred by what he described as false cases and irregularities in elections. He also held Union Minister Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar and State HRD Minister Nara Lokesh responsible for the developments.
