NTR Lord Krishna statue in legal tangle

Ntr Lord Krishna Statue lands in trouble. It is known that as a part of Sr NTR centenary celebrations, Minister Puvvada Ajaykumar planned to celebrate grandly in Khammam. They planned to inaugurate the NTR statue in Lord Krishna's avatar in Tankbund, Khammam in between the Lakaram Lake.

Minister Puvvada Ajay Kumar invited Jr NTR and planned to make NTR launch the statue in an extravagant manner on the centenary celebrations on 28 May 2023. But Karate Kalyani expressed her opposition to the statue of NTR in Lord Krishna form. At that time, MAA President Manchu Vishnu sent show cause notice to her.

But Karate Kalyani's Bharatiya Yadav Association, Sri Krishna JAC, Adibhatla Kalapeetham approached Telangana High Court and with 14 petitions filed Telangana High Court stalled the inauguration of the statue. Many expected that Khammam will become the center of attraction with the NTR statue at Lakkaram Tankbund, cable bridge, fountains etc but many religious organizations approached the court saying that their sentiments have been hurt.

They have been questioning how could anyone erect a political leader or a film actor statue in the avatar of Lord Krishna and stated that they are not against the NTR statue but the NTR statue in Lord Krishna's avatar.
