Ganta Srinivasa Rao is a very special politician. He does not have any inhibitions in changing from one party to the other as long as it suits his personal interests.
Currently in the TDP and enjoying the privilege off Ministership, Ganta has realised that TDP is facing an all-time high anti-incumbency and will not come to power in 2019. Therefore, he has initiated talks with his Kapu party Janasena and YSRCP.
When Vijay Sai Reddy said that Ganta was in talks with the YSRCP, everyone assumed that it was just a psychological ploy by the YSRCP to unsettle the ruling party. But apparently, there is indeed something going on behind the scenes.
Andhra Jyothy has come out with a survey on MLAs performance and naturally, the findings declared that people were overjoyed with the performance of the TDP MLAs except for a few.
One of the names in the list of bad performing MLAs was that of Ganta Srinivasa Rao.
The fact that Vemuri Radhakrishna choose to target a ruling party Minister directly in the name of a survey is an indication of the fact that all is not well in the TDP. Without instructions from Lokesh or Naidu, he would not take such a step.
Tomorrow, the TDP can use the pretext of this survey finding to deny him and other MLAs and their followers, tickets or other posts and privileges.
What is Ganta’s response going to be? YSRCP or Jana Sena? Either party will welcome him because at the end of the day, all that political parties need are winning horses, ethics be damned!
