“Jagan Poised to Revise the List?”
The political atmosphere leading up to the Andhra Pradesh elections is abuzz with activity, particularly following the YSRCP’s recent unveiling of candidates for both Assembly and Parliament seats.
However, murmurs of potential candidate alterations are now swirling, injecting an air of uncertainty into the electoral landscape.Speculation is rife, particularly in the combined districts of Krishna and Guntur, where talks of possible candidate swaps are gaining traction.
One notable instance revolves around the Kadapa Parliament constituency, where Jagan’s brother Avinash Reddy is slated to contest for the YSRCP. However, with Jagan’s sister Sharmila throwing her hat in the ring under the Congress banner and actively campaigning against the YSRCP nominee, concerns about vote fragmentation and its potential repercussions on Jagan’s influence in his home district have surfaced.
hint at the possibility of Abhishek Reddy replacing Avinash Reddy as the YSRCP contender, although no official confirmation has been forthcoming.Similar conjecture surrounds other constituencies. In Mylavaram, there’s speculation that Jogi Ramesh, currently representing Penamalur, could emerge as the YSRCP candidate, supplanting Sarnala Tirupati Rao.
This maneuver is perceived as an effort to field a more formidable candidate against Vasanthakrishna Prasad, who recently switched allegiance from the YSRCP to the Telugu Desam Party. Additionally, whispers regarding the Vijayawada West constituency suggest a potential substitution, with Mahesh, a recent YSRCP recruit from Jana Sena, replacing the initially announced candidate Sheikh Asif.
Similarly, there are murmurs about Kilari Roshaiah, the MLA hopeful for Guntur West, being fielded as the MP candidate for Guntur, while a fresh face takes the reins for the MLA seat.Read more..
