As the elections to the state assembly are fast approaching, the ruling Telugu Desam Party and the opposition YSR Congress party have started playing the mind game to gain psychological edge over each other.
Even as the Telugu Desam Party is fretting and fuming against the Centre over injustice done to the state, the NDA government has started throwing the ball into the court of chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu.

YSR Congress party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy might have made the announcement that his party was prepared to move a no-confidence motion in Parliament against the NDA government at the Centre on the issue of special category status to Andhra Pradesh, mainly to embarrass the Telugu Desam Party in the state.
