Muddada Madhu, Vizianagaram Parliamentary wing general secretary of the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP), resigned, citing the party’s failure to acknowledge his services. He accused the party of injustice towards the Yadavas by denying a ticket to a community member from Vizianagaram, where backward class population is significant. Madhu, also president of Uttarandhra BC Samskshema Sangham, criticized the YSRCP for neglecting downtrodden sections despite claiming to champion backward classes.
