TDP leader Lanka Dinakar on Tuesday said the advise that Janata Dal (United) vice president Prashant Kishor is offering YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) chief Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy is "adversely affecting peace and harmony" in Andhra Pradesh.

"Telugu Desam Party and N Chandrababu Naidu have a lot of respect for people of Bihar. Prashant Kishor is advising Jaganmohan Reddy, it's adversely affecting peace and harmony in Andhra Pradesh. We are only raising our voice against acts by Prashant Kishor that are threatening peace and harmony in Andhra Pradesh," Dinakar said.

On Monday, Andhra Pradesh chief minister Chandrababu Naidu, while addressing party workers in Ongole area of Prakasam district, had accused 'Bihari dacoit' Kishor of removing the names of lakhs on voters from his state's electoral roll.

 

"K Chandrashekar Rao is doing criminal politics. He is grabbing the MLAs of Congress and TDP. Bihari dacoit Prasant Kishore has removed lakhs of votes in Andhra Pradesh. He is committing cybercrime," Naidu had said.

In response to this, Kishor tweeted: "An imminent defeat can rattle even the most seasoned politicians. So I'm not surprised with the baseless utterances of @ncbn. Sirji rather than using derogatory language that shows your prejudice & malice against Bihar, just focus on why people of AP should vote for you again.
