Kanna quits BJP after long tiff with Veerraju

Deccan Chronicle  

Vijayawada: The BJP national executive member Kanna Lakshminarayana quit the party on Thursday after a long tiff with state party chief Somu Veerraju. In a letter to BJP national president J.P. Nadda, Lakshminarayana said, “I hereby submit my resignation from the primary membership of the party with immediate effect due to personal reasons and compulsions.” The BJP senior leader had been removed from the post of AP chief to accommodate Somu Veerraju. Since then, he has been targeting Veerraju on every available opportunity and finding fault with him for “failing to lead the party property.” He was also critical of Veerraju for his “failure” to maintain good relationship with Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan. Notably, the central BJP leadership had issued a gag order to him, when his criticism of Veerraju went beyond “tolerable levels” in recent times.
