Jagan ‘offers’ RS ticket to Chiranjeevi

Andhra Pradesh CM and YSRC president Jagan Mohan Reddy is said to have offered a Rajya Sabha seat to Tollywood star and former Union minister K Chiranjeevi. Sources close to the chief minister’s office said that Jagan and Chiranjeevi discussed more about politics rather than film industry issues during their recent meeting. Jagan hosted lunch to the actor and officially the meeting was to discuss the controversy over the pricing of cinema tickets inAP. Sources said Jagan offered a Rajya Sabha seat to Chiranjeevi during the discussions. However, neither Chiranjeevi nor the CMO has officially confirmed that the two leaders had talked a bout the RS seat. Four Rajya Sabha seats will fall vacant in AP in June this year. These vacancies are scheduled to be filled during March-April.
