Revanth Reddy, the President of the Telangana Congress Party, has been facing significant challenges in gaining traction and securing votes in the upcoming Telangana elections.
Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan is currently facing significant trouble. After announcing that Jana Sena and TDP would contest the upcoming general elections together, he found himself embroiled in controversy.
It appears the Congress high command has virtually shut the doors on YSR Telangana Party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy’s sister Y S Sharmila, who desperately wanted to merge her party with the grand old party.
The decision of Jana Sena Party president and power star Pawan Kalyan to forge an alliance with the Telugu Desam Party headed by former chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu appears to have not gone down well with many of Jana Sena Party leaders and cadre.
The opposition TDP missed a significant opportunity to boost the morale of its members after its humiliating defeat in the 2019 general election.
Pawan Kalyan has made an unexpected return to Hyderabad. Reliable sources indicate that the TDP high command instructed him to relocate to Telangana temporarily until further notice.
As the Election Commission of India is all set to announce the schedule for the assembly elections in Telangana, along with four other states in the country this afternoon, the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi is hurrying through various programmes to woo the voters.
The proposed meeting of YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) delegates at Indira Gandhi Municipal Stadium at Vijayawada to be addressed by party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy on Monday has kicked up a lot of speculations in the political circles.
In a startling revelation, Dwarampudi Chandrasekhar, the YSRCP MLA, openly alleged that Pawan Kalyan received a staggering package of Rs 1400 crore from Chandrababu Naidu, and this money was funneled through illicit channels that transcended national borders.
It is a fact that the Bharatiya Janata Party has not been able to make a mark in Andhra Pradesh politics, despite its hectic efforts.
The meeting of Bharatiya Janata Party national president J P Nadda with chairpersons of two media houses – Ch Ramoji Rao of Eenadu group and Vemuri Radha Krishna of Andhra Jyothy on Friday night raised many an eyebrow.
Jana Sena Party president and power star Pawan Kalyan is obviously afraid of admitting that he had snapped ties with the Bharatiya Janata Party, even as he has been moving closely with the Telugu Desam Party.
The arrest of Telugu Desam Party president and former Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu in the alleged skill development scam is learnt to have demoralised the party leadership in the state.
This information comes from reliable sources, suggesting that Jagan Mohan Reddy's trip to Delhi holds significant political importance.
Though there is no official statement yet from Jana Sena Party president and power star Pawan Kalyan that he has come out of the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance, a national news agency report quoting Pawan as saying so has created ripples in the BJP.
