One person who was conspicuous by her absence at the 48-hour Rythu Deeksha taken up by Kadapa MP and YSR Congress president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy at Guntur was actress-turned-politician Roja.
Her absence has led to speculations that something has gone wrong for her in the Jagan party. Interestingly, Roja did not actively participate in the campaign for Jagan in the Kadapa by-elections.
Initially, she toured a few areas, but later disappeared from the scene and nothing much was heard about her. Earlier, she used to participate extensively in television channel debates in support of Jagan, but suddenly she stopped it.
Even after Jagan’s victory, she did not participate in the channel debates, except giving phone-in bytes to a few channels, congratulating Jagan.
The rumours doing rounds in the media that Roja had been feeling sidelined in the YSR Congress party. Apparently, Jagan has not been involving her in any key discussions and on many occasions, she had to wait outside his chamber for several hours.
The main reason, according to these rumours, was that Jagan was not happy with the way Roja was coming to the party office with full make-up.
“This is not the shooting spot to display your glamour. Come to the party like any other party worker. You don’t need to come with a lot of make up and divert the attention of the other party leaders,” Jagan is believed to have told her, well in the presence of party colleagues.
It may be mentioned that hero-turned-politician Rajasekhar was also pulled up for coming to Jagan’s public meeting with a lot of glamour show. Jagan told him not to wear jeans and goggles while coming to political meetings. It looks like Jagan wants people to come to the meetings to see him, but not the filmy glamour faces.
