Janasena Chief Pawan Sits On One Day Fast For Uddanam Kidney Patients:- Actor turned Politician and chief of Jana Sena Party Pawan Kalyan, who is currently touring in Srikakulam district has decided to sit on a one-day hunger strike demanding the permanent solution of the chronic kidney disease (CKD) in Uddanam area of the district. He had visited the Uddanam area two years ago when he was a friend of the ruling Telugu Desam Party and raised the voice for the victims. As he was a friend then, the government responded quickly and opened three dialysis centers in no time along with other precautions like providing secured water for free. The State government had then sent its health minister Kamineni Srinivas to Delhi and get the dialysis centers for these victims. The Centre, which was an ally of the TDP, too acted swiftly and granted 10 dialysis centers. That was the response Pawan Kalyan received when he visited the area for the first time and raised his voice.

Now, after two years, he visited the area again and set a deadline of two days to the State government on the same issue. This time, the government did not react as it reacted in the past. He is not a friend any more. He is a foe or a critic sitting in the opposition and there is no reason why the government should react. As the two-day deadline had gone, he had decided to sit in a 24 hour hunger strike. The police did not give him the permission forcing him to start his first day fast in his resort where he was camping. On Saturday, he continued his deeksha after moving to the local Arts College grounds in Srikakulam.

Even if he sits there for 20 days it is for sure this government would not take him as seriously as it took when he was a friend. He would be ignored or cut to size as it is Chandrababu Naidu in power not the others.

The irony is that he had promised a 45-day long padayatra in the three northern coastal districts from May 20. But, in two days, he had changed his padayatra to bus yatra blaming the police for not providing security for his walk. He also said that his personal security persons were injured as the mob rush went uncontrollable. A leader who cannot plan and execute his programme in the public is not taken seriously. This is not first time that he had changed his stand on the issues. Earlier when the people of the capital villages requested him to support their fight against the government taking away their lands for capital, he had promised to fight for them if the government uses force. It is more than three years now, he is seen nowhere in the capital villages and is not available them too.
