EC norms on election expenditure are ignored aby all parties. Political parties are spending hundreds of crores to win elections. The two major parties are spending a total of Rs. 300 crores, at the rate of Rs. 150 crores each.
It is said that there has never been his record of spending such an amount in the past. One party has already started distribution at the rate of Rs. 4000 per vote. Depending on the demand, there is a situation where even Rs. 5000 is given per vote.
In this way, the ruling and opposition parties competing and fell into the hunt of buying more votes.
In the past, TDP voters used to pay some round figure to some key people to get votes in bulk. Now the scene has changed. The demand for votes in Kumpam has increased like never before. YCP is challenging TDP. YSP is moving with the aim of defeating Babu.
There is an experience for YCP of defeating TDP in local body elections. TDP fears what will happen with these bitter memories. That is why Chandrababu Naidu's wife Nara Bhuvaneshwari is keeping a watchful eye on Kuppam as never before. Bhuvaneshwari is directing the party leaders and workers that there should not be any difference.
They are reminding themselves that if their rival YS Jagan focusses on something, he hardly sleeps until achieving it.
With this, TDP took special care of the situation. The ruling and opposition parties have given Rs. 100 crores to the voters and Rs. 50 crores each to the small and big leaders of the party and have taken steps to make them perform well in the elections.
This time, Jagan succeeded in instilling fear in Chandrababu. We have to see to what extent the election fight goes in Kuppam and await the result on June 4.
