KADAPA: Vowing to fight for special category status for AP and promising a ban on alcohol, Leader of the Opposition and YSRC chief Y S Jaganmohan Reddy kicked off his 3,000-km padayatra from his father YSR Rajasekhar Reddy’s memorial at their family estate in Idupulapaya in Kadapa district on Monday morning.

The route for the ambitious and arduous walkathon has been drawn in a such a way that he can interact with people in all the 175 Assembly segments in the State. The yatra will end at Ichapuram in Srikakulam district. A combative Jaganmohan Reddy, who seemed to be seething inwardly to settle scores with Naidu for inflicting electoral humiliation on him in Nandyal and Kakinada, tried to tear Naidu to pieces in his whistle-stop meetings as he continued his walkathon.
