The term “Egg puffs” has become a hot topic in Andhra Pradesh following revelations that the previous YCP government spent over Rs 3.5 crore on them for the Chief Minister’s Office. This news sparked widespread criticism of the YCP administration, with many questioning the exorbitant expenditure on such a seemingly trivial item. The controversy intensified as people criticized the government’s financial decisions and priorities.

In an unexpected twist, actor Sai Dharam Tej weighed in on the debate with a pointed response to a YCP-affiliated Twitter user. The user had tagged Tej in a tweet criticizing the hygiene standards at Anna Canteens, based on a video showing unsanitary plate-cleaning practices. Tej's response took a sharp jab at the YCP by referencing the inflated egg puffs bill, saying, “Ohhh okay okay, no wonder the EGG PUFFS bill is so high sir, hope you’ve eaten well andi, take care, sir.” This tweet cleverly tied the controversy surrounding the egg puffs expenditure to the current hygiene issue being discussed.

Tej’s response highlights the ongoing political and social media dynamics in Andhra Pradesh, where criticisms and scandals frequently intersect. By leveraging the egg puffs controversy to address a separate criticism, Sai Dharam Tej added a layer of irony to the situation. His tweet not only deflected the criticism directed at him but also underscored the persistent dissatisfaction with the YCP’s handling of public funds and services.
