JSP leaders accused YSRCP of neglecting Kapu welfare, citing ineffective Kapu Corporation and halted scholarships, while YSRCP's Botcha Satyanarayana attributed community action to government delays in investigation and denied labeling Kapu leaders as criminals. Both parties highlighted concerns about caste politics and pledged support for the Kapu community amid ongoing tensions.
