The 'Gadapa Gadapaku' programme is aimed at rallying the public for the upcoming state assembly elections.
YSRCP MLA Monditoka Jagan Mohana Rao faced public backlash over the implementation of government welfare schemes during the party's 'Gadapa Gadapaku' programme in the town of Nandigama in Andhra Pradesh's NTR district on Tuesday. The incident occurred when the public opposed the local MLA's visit, causing tension in the area.

The conflict escalated when the villagers blocked MLA Jagan Mohan Rao's way, and a scuffle broke out between the two groups. The police intervened and brought the situation under control.

To ensure the programme's effective implementation, Jagan has ordered the formation of committees that will supervise the programme in each district.
