Andhra Pradesh chief minister YS Jaganmohan reddy, focused on securing victory in the upcoming elections, is displaying a unique approach by prioritizing public opinion over unnecessary affiliations. Unlike many chief ministers who might compromise or take risks for their close associates, Jaganmohan reddy is known for his assertive style, reminiscent of a seasoned strategist entering the arena.
The recent decision to change the in-charges of 11 constituencies is cited as evidence of his distinctive approach. Speculation is rife that this move is just a glimpse, with estimates suggesting that 30-40 MLAs may undergo changes, as echoed strongly on social media. Drawing lessons from telangana chief minister K. Chandrashekar Rao's experience during the assembly elections, where distancing from power dynamics and making necessary adjustments became crucial, Jaganmohan reddy appears to be adopting a cautious stance.
Recent social media chatter has sparked discussions about the alleged unavailability of a seat for minister Roja in the upcoming elections. This has become a widely discussed topic, with suggestions that Roja might find herself on the list of candidates with no available tickets. Additionally, concerns are raised about the potential impact on Roja's political standing in the joint chittoor district, a region where cm Jaganmohan reddy holds minister Peddireddy in high regard.
Minister Roja's relationship with her party colleagues, particularly within the Peddireddy group, is reported to be strained. Notably, individuals like Chakrapani reddy, KJ Shanti, and KJ Kumar, aligned with Peddireddy, are said to occasionally target Roja. This internal discord, coupled with Roja's vocal and confrontational style against political adversaries, has led to a challenging situation within her own party.
As a result of these challenges, rumours are circulating that Roja may have to seek a ticket from nellore district instead of nagari Bari, her current representation. The speculations around Roja's ticket allocation indicate potential political shifts within the party, suggesting a concession from Peddireddy's side.
