"I will not join any political party. I will not resign in the hope of another position, benefits, or money. This decision is completely my personal one. There was no pressure. No one influenced me. I am indebted to the YS family, who have believed in and supported me for four decades and three generations. I am forever grateful to Jagan garu for giving me the opportunity to be a Rajya Sabha member twice, and to Bharatamma garu for taking me to such a high level," said Reddy in his statement.

"I wish Jagan garu all the best. As the leader of the parliamentary party, as the floor leader in the Rajya Sabha, as the national general secretary of the party, I have worked sincerely and tirelessly for the interests of the party and the state. I have acted as a bridge between the center and the state," added the MP in his statement.


Further, Reddy expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah.

"I have political differences with TDP. I have no personal differences with Chandrababu's family. I have a long-standing friendship with Pawan Kalyan. My future is agriculture. I express my heartfelt gratitude to the people of my state, friends, colleagues, and party workers, each and every one of them, by name, for supporting me throughout my long political journey," said Reddy.
