Pawan Kalyan a political opportunist, Twitter Tiger: BJP

Condemning Telugu actor-turned-politician Pawan Kalyan's comments on its top leaders, BJP today alleged that the Jana Sena Party founder is a "political opportunist and a Twitter Tiger" who lacks maturity.
"BJP strongly condemns Pawan Kalyan statements on Prime Minister Modi, BJP and Venkiah Naidu. His statements are unwarranted, baseless and juvenile. No one who understands basic tenets of governance will make silly statements like he made in his press conference today," BJP spokesperson Krishna Saagar Rao said in a statement here.
Kalyan lacks sincerity of purpose or maturity to address people's concerns in a structured way, Rao alleged.
"Pawan Kalyan is a political opportunist and a Twitter tiger. He is trying to ride a readymade wave, if someone can drive it. He has neither sincerity of purpose nor maturity to address people's concerns structurally. He lacks conviction to be in the midst of the people, whom he wishes to fight for.

He is a part time politician who operates through press conferences and Twitter," he said.
Describing Kalyan as a "part time politician", Rao said the actor's personal statements on Union Minister Venkaiah Naidu show his "bankruptcy of purpose" and maturity.

"His (Kalyan) personal statements against Venkaiah Naidu only expose his bankruptcy of purpose and clarity of thought.
Blaming PM Modi for rally permission in Vizag is something which only someone with Pawan Kalyan level of maturity can do.
BJP warns Pawan Kalyan to focus if he can, on real issues and fight if can, in the real world for real people, than occasionally wake up from his shooting schedules and make pointless, baseless and juvenile allegations on BJP and its national leaders," he said.

Addressing a press conference earlier today, Kalyan alleged that the NDA government had a unilateral style of functioning and also hit out at Union Minister M Venkaiah Naidu over his comments on the issue of special category status to Andhra Pradesh.
