Pawan Kalyan has hit out at the YS Jaganmohan Reddy government over CM Jagan saying that the Jana Sena supremo is an adopted son of vested interests.

"I am a 'Datta Putrudu' of people alone. The remarks made by YCP leaders have come to my notice. The tiff with government employees was not created by the Opposition parties. It's the YCP government itself that had promised to give a hike in salaries and abolition of the contributory pension scheme. The Pay Revision Commission has to be implemented and that's what employees have been demanding. The negotiations between employees and the government had failed. Why target Jana Sena for it?" Pawan asked.

Pawan said that Jagan expects everyone to fall in line or face abuse. "It doesn't work that way. Today, those who don't kowtow to the government are looking like enemies to the government. Government employees are protesting wearing black badges. It's totally on the government. It is useless to target the Opposition," the 'Bheemla Nayak' actor said.

High-handedness is what the government has been adopting,he alleged. "The Ministers make combative comments. The government has been taking authoritarian stances," Pawan added. "Lakhs of employees coming out on the streets was not because of the mobilization by Opposition parties. It shows the failure of governance," he opined.

Pawan said that he had a Punar Janma, thanks to Kondagattu Anjaneya Swamy. "I had a close shave with death when I miraculously escaped an electric shock many years ago," he suggested, adding that he will be undertaking a Narasimha Darshana Yatra praying for the welfare of the people of AP and Telangana.
