Thanks to this incident involving Andhra’s Reddy Garu billionaire, one can now hope the superstitious BJP Chief Minister of Karnataka and his Bellary brothers will finally stop shamelessly bleeding helpless tax payers money by using the chopper to visit every single temple, mutt or dargha and falling on every single, pseudo swami including crooked pedophiles like Sai Bhaba, in every nook and corner of the state.
Hopefully instead of using the Kingfisher airlines to the coastal areas, Yeddi will henceforth repair, asplat and concretize the crucial Blr-Mlr national highway and at least do one good deed for the common man during his tenure. If not one can only pray to the Lord to save him from crashing on a remote hillock in the ghats.

Will Janardhana Reddy’s wings be clipped now?

You wish!
Either YSR’s wife or son will be anointed as the CM, everything will continue as is. :(

Yeddi may have gotten a breather now that the man behind the imminent toppling of his chair is no more.

It is sad that he died. But, who allowed him to fly in a old chopper ?
Indian bureaucracy…?!

I am sure his followers would want to erect a cross at the spot he died. Very tragic end to a ‘highly regarded’ CM!
