Amaravati, March 30 (TIWN) Following the statement by Andhra Pradesh Bharatiya Janata Party chief Somu Veerraju that Prime Minister Narendra Modi 'likes' Pawan Kalyan, and called the party cadre to 'revere' him, Janasena leaders have started claiming that the actor-politician is a 100 per cent chief ministerial candidate in the next Assembly elections.

“Kalyan is 100 per cent the chief minister candidate, the national party BJP’s state president has said it. We hail the statement of Veerraju and welcome it,” said Janasena leader P. Hari Prasad.  He claimed that the state ‘needs’ the actor’s leadership who can work with dedication for the people with honesty.  “All of you must work hard in that direction to bring change to the people. For that, just writing posts on social media is not enough. All you shall come out and reach every house,” Prasad addressed Janasena party cadres.
