For T Jayaprakash Reddy alias Jagga Reddy, the outspoken TPCC working president, Rahul Gandhi “embodies the essence of Lord Rama’s legacy and principles.” During an informal chat with the reporters, the former Sangareddy MLA accused the BJP leaders of “exploiting” the name of Lord Rama for political gains and urged the people to elect Rahul Gandhi as prime minister to ensure that “Rama rajya” is established in the country. Taking a dig at the BJP leaders, he said that Lord Rama never advocated that a temple be built in his name.
