If That’s the Case, Jagan Should Move to Germany: Pawan Kalyan

Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan has responded to the walkout staged by YSRCP legislators from the state assembly. The opposition party, led by Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, walked out in protest, demanding official recognition as the principal opposition in the assembly.

Speaking to the media at the assembly premises, Pawan Kalyan stated that India’s Constitution does not have any provision mandating opposition status based on the percentage of votes a party secures in an election. Mocking Jagan Mohan Reddy's insistence on the issue, he remarked, "If that’s the case, Jagan should move to Germany."

Elaborating on his statement, Pawan Kalyan pointed out that in Germany, parliamentary seats are allocated based on the percentage of votes a party receives. If a party secures less than five percent of the vote, those votes are redistributed among other parties. He suggested that if Jagan Mohan Reddy continues to insist on opposition status under such a system, he should consider relocating to Germany.
