Jagan Mohan Reddy, in turn, accused Naidu of “election subversion,” claimed the TDP’s victory in urban local body polls did not reflect the people’s verdict, alleged that the ruling party manipulated the electoral process from nominations to counting using police and administrative machinery, and said the State Election Commission failed to function as an independent electoral authority.
