The political circles are in an uproar and eyebrows are being raised, thanks to a hilarious video tweet shared by A.P. Jithender Reddy, the former MP and National Executive Member of the BJP.

What does it take to get the Telangana BJP going? Former MP and BJP’s national executive member AP Jithender Reddy has found the answer: A kick where it hurts the most!
As if to ensure that the message is not lost in words, the 67-year-old BJP leader uploaded a video on his Twitter handle as well. It showed a farmer trying to load a yak onto a van, and the shaggy-haired animal seemed to be in no mood for a ride.
The farmer, like Jithender Reddy, knew what would make the animal board the vehicle. He goes behind the yak, lifts its tail, and delivers a sharp kick to you know where. And the yak boards the vehicle in a single leap.
The yak metaphor was not lost. Jithender Reddy apparently made the animal represent the party leaders in Telangana. He also tagged @blsanthosh, @BJP4India, @AmitShah, @Sunilbansalbjp, and @BJP4Telangana.
He initially tweeted the video in the morning, only to delete it. But wait, there’s more! He mustered up the courage, or perhaps couldn’t resist the temptation, and shared the tweet once again, this time at 11:54 am.

The tweet sent the political circles into a frenzy — well, who wouldn’t on seeing your opponent getting a kick in the groin, and that too, by his teammate! It provided the perfect opportunity for Telangana state Congress president A Revanth Reddy to chime in.
According to him, Jitender Reddy’s tweet has flawlessly captured the chaotic state of affairs within the BJP.
జితేందర్ రెడ్డి గారు… బీజేపీ అంతర్గత ‘తన్నులాట’ను అద్భుతమైన పోలికతో ప్రజలకు వివరించారు. ఆ పార్టీలో చేరిన వారి పరిస్థితి గురించి ఇంత కంటే గొప్పగా ఎవరూ చెప్పలేరు! https://t.co/OcR1Z687rt

BRS spokesperson, Krishank Manne, too highlighted the internal squabbles within the BJP.
BJP National Executive Member's Tweet against BJP Telangana Leadership 👇🏽👇🏽 https://t.co/incCfOdAGI

Putting up a brave facade, BJP sources said it was not a kick to the groin. They claimed that the tweet was meant to convey a message about not entertaining the tantrums of certain leaders. It appears that Jithender Reddy was trying to imply this to the BJP central leadership, or so say the BJP sources.
The sources pointed out that several other leaders have faced worse attacks in the past which did not grab much attention.
But wait, there’s more! Jithendra Reddy did try to do some damage control with a follow-up tweet. He claimed that the treatment was only meant for the detractors of Bandi within the party!
కేసిఆర్ సోషల్ మీడియా ఊరకుక్కలకు తెల్వాల్సిన ముచ్చట ఏంటిదంటే…
బండి సంజయ్ గారి నాయకత్వాన్ని ప్రశ్నించేటోళ్లకు ఎలాంటి ట్రీట్మెంట్ ఇవ్వాల్నో చెప్పే ప్రయత్నాన్ని తప్పుగ అర్థం చేసుకునే ఊరకుక్కల్లార… బిస్కెట్ల కోసం బరితెగించకుర్రి— AP Jithender Reddy (@apjithender) June 29, 2023
However, some loyal BJP supporters had a light-bulb moment. They claimed that the farmer represented the sentiments of all ‘karyakartas’ in Telangana.
