<p>Former chief minister and Jai Samaikyandhra Party president N Kiran Kumar Reddy is pulling out all stops to take his party into the public.</p><p>In a bid to garner support for his new party, he held discussions with various joint action committees (JACs) which actively participated during the Samaikyandhra agitation, at a function hall in the city Monday and offered the party tickets to some aspirants. The former chief minister who is touring the region explained to the participating JACs led by students, doctors, lawyers, Muslims and other groups that the party was formed only for them.</p><p>Taking a dig at rumours that some parties were offering tickets for money, he said that tickets would be given to those who worked to keep the state united. "There is no need to worry about having to 'book' your tickets by paying money unlike other parties. Being the only party supporting a unified state, we need a strong representation in the Lok Sabha to defeat the moves to take the bifurcation process further," he said.</p><p>Kiran Kumar Reddy strongly felt that the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Bill requires some constitutional amendments and the new government at the Centre might rush it through in the first session of the Lok Sabha itself. He declared that the party would never join hands with Congress under any circumstances. Instead, the party would fight along with any party which supports the cause of a united state.</p><p><a href="http://www.newindianexpress.com/states/andhra_pradesh/Kiran-Woos-Samaikya-Activists-to-Prop-Up-JSP/2014/03/18/article2115330.ece">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://www.deccanchronicle.com/140317/nation-politics/article/no-merger-congress-kiran-kumar-reddy">No merger with Congress: Kiran Kumar Reddy</a> (Deccan Chronicle)</p><p><a href="http://www.outlookindia.com/article.aspx?289814">&#039;Telangana Will Be The Worst Hit After The Split&#039;</a> (Outlook)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=dUOUyN4qyXy63zM8ArSqY3Etw0Y6M&authuser=0&ned=us">29 additional articles.</a></p>
