He asked where was the need for the by-poll when the elections are only a year away. "BJP could never save its deposit in this constituency. If they get votes, they will install meters," he said.Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy's recent resignation as MLA has caused the vacancy.

There are only nine others but they are so arrogant that they talk of creating Eknath Shindes," he said.He alleged that BJP talked of pulling down the DMK government in Tamil Nadu and Mamata Banerjee government in West Bengal. aceTheir arrogance will lead to their downfall," he said.On the threat by BJP leaders to use the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against him, he remarked that he was not afraid of 'ED, Bodi'.
