TDP leader Varla Ramaiah has lashed out at Gudivada MLA Kodali Nani for his comments against TDP leader and son of legendary NTR, Balakrishna. Varla Ramaiah asked Kodali Nani to be honest and asked him to recall his vows at the time of funeral procession of Anantapur TDP leader Paritala Ravindra.

It is known that Paritala was brutally murdered at party office in Anantapur a couple of years ago and rumours were rife that YS Rajashekara Reddy's son YS Jaganmohan Reddy was behind the elimination sketch of Paritala. Varla quoted Kodali Nani's statements then who reportedly held Jagan responsible for murder of Paritala. He questioned as to how a person who criticized Jagan now approached Jagan and said he would contest against Balakrishna on YSRC ticket.
