Once he was a Chief Minister of 23 districts. Then the time has reduced him to the CM of 13 districts. Later he landed as a dim torch bearer of only 23 MLAs and finally ended up as a small leader of three villages.
He lost his sheen in his own hub Kuppam and cried in the press meet sometime back. Chandrababu is like a Moon that has permanently waned. His prime time in politics is over and he can never come back.
Though many hail him as a visionary and polished leader, his latest behavior and public speech is projecting him the other way round.
"If I were given the power next time, I would show my cruelty on YCP at least twenty times more", Chandrababu said openly.
This shows that he has totally become a revenge politician. He may have that zeal inside, but letting that out in speech is something not sane.
He is not talking about the Polavaram project or Special Status now. His focus is completely pinned on troubling the YCP leaders if given a chance.
The former Chief Ministers like Kasu Brahmananda Reddy, Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy, Kotla Vijayabhaskar Reddy, Jalagam Vengal Rao, Marri Chenna Reddy, Bhavanam Venkatram, Nedurumalli Janardana Reddy and PV Narasimha Rao have maintained their decency and dignity during their tenure and after retirement.
But Chandrababu is showing the abyss of narrow mindedness and jealousy.
He is totally depressed that his real estate dream in the interest of his own party and some people of his community at Amaravati has got completely shattered.
He is dejected because his son is not in a position to take up the mantle of the party leadership.
Even if the anti incumbency surfaces sometime down the line, people may look out for some other alternative but not TDP for sure as per the ground reality at present.
