HYDERABAD: Praja Rajyam has regretted that ‘injustice’ had been done to the State in terms of the poor representation in the Union Council of Ministers and charged Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy with lack of will to pursue the State’s agenda. At a press conference here on Thursday, senior leader T. Sitaram said that although 33 Congress MPs were elected from the State, Dr. Reddy managed to secure only one Cabinet rank Minister and four Ministers of State.

In comparison, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu, that sent lesser number of Congress and Trinamool Congress MPs, had bagged many more berths while the NCP could get three. He regretted that the North-South divide still continued despite better performance. Of the 78-strong Union Cabinet, only 26 were from the South, he said.

When it comes to reel life, megastar Chiranjeevi was one man who was the ruling emperor of Tollywood and he was on the throne for more than a decade. However, things do not look to be the same when it comes to real life and one truth that has been expressed by many is that there is no Chiranjeevi without his brother in law and the mastermind Allu Aravind.

This is no exaggeration in the views as many incidents that took place in the Praja Rajyam Party that has been founded by Chiru had demonstrated. Apart from that, many internal sources that work with the PRP have confirmed that Chiru does not even turn his head unless he takes a word of advice from his brother in law.

Now, Chiru has got a rather difficult situation at hand now as he is all set to enter the assembly and at the same time, he does not have Allu around since he lost. So many are waiting to see as to what or how will Chiru speak with his mere presence at the assembly. Many are also imagining a situation when chief minister Y S R could show his natural aggression and cut Chiru to size which would wipe the entire fame and charisma that Chiru developed from few decades. It is known that Chiru is more attached to image and respect than anything else.

It must be recalled that during the Vajrotsavam time, the tussle that broke out between Chiru and Mohan Babu. Chiru is said to have taken few minutes off before giving his response, he then discussed the matter with Aravind and is said to have uttered exactly those words that Aravind had prepared for. Coming back to the assembly, Chiru might face the risk of facing ragging from congress, TDP and he would not have his Allu Aravind around.

If Chiru keeps quiet he will be treated as dud and people forget him for ever. If he speaks, he needs to have thorough knowledge. Otherwise Rosiah may say, “Koorchovayya Chiranjeevi…idhemi cinema shooting kaadu chethikochchina dialogue evado raasisthe nuvvu notikochchinattu chadavadaaniki…’ And YSR may say, “Bavamaridi lekundaa nuvvu maatladalevule kaani…paruvupoka munde koorchunte manchidi”. Chandrababu may say, “edi maatladina logic tho undaali..chiranjeevi laa kaadu”.

Where Chiru keeps his head if those situations arise? Can he give retort? Or spoils his health and becomes an absentee in Assembly.

His image importance might be at jeopardy and many are wondering whether Chiru will keep look around or will he talk? Even better, there are those who say that he might take a break during the proceedings, calls Allu on mobile and then comes back with an answer or a statement. It will be interesting to see Chiru in the assembly now.

It’s like Arjuna’s battle in kurukshetram without Lord Krishna on his chariot.

Rebel Star Krishna Raju was the member of BJP a month before the elctions. thjere were rumors that Krishnam Raju would join Congress but finally joined PRP and contested for Loka Sabha from Rajamandry and last the elections to Congress candidate Undlavally Arun Kumar.

After loosing the elections, Krishnam Raju never seen at thePRP prty office. When the postmartem on defeat is going on at PRP office with all senior members of the party, Krishnam Raju never attended these meetings.

All of a sudden Krisham Raju met YSR at latter’s camp office and congratulated YSR for winning the elections.

When the media asked to react. Mr Raju said ‘ If at all I join congress, I will definitely inform you, People have voted Congress only seeing the development done by YSR’.

After the Political affairs committee meet, Chiru spoke to media today evening and explained the reason for the poor performance of his party.

1.The symbol (Rail Engine) was not clearly visible, so we are going for new symbol after consulting election commission.

2.We were little bit delayed while allotting the tickets, we could have announced the list little earlier.

3.As we were more particular about social justice, it was some disadvantage to us,instead of going for Gelupu Gurralu, we…..

4. We were expecting 40% vote share in the state, but Manmohan Singh effect is very much there on the state.

5.Still the party has done well in the elections by procuring more than 70 lakhs votes.

The volcano on which Praja Rajyam chief Chiranjeevi has been sitting for quite sometime exploded on Thursday with several members of the party’s political affairs committee (PAC) indirectly blaming party general secretary Allu Aravind for the debacle in the recent Assembly and Lok Sabha elections.
As soon as the PAC met Thursday morning, senior leaders, including Ch Harirama Jogaiah and P Shiv Shankar, reportedly argued that allegations of ‘ticket sales’ to aspirants had done the party in.
Another leader C Ramachandraiah, who lost the Lok Sabha election from Machilipatnam, wanted the party president to disband the PAC, party state committee and all other affiliated committees and reconstitute them with people known for their integrity and honesty.
Allu Aravind, finding himself at the receiving end, expressed his displeasure at being made a scapegoat for the flop show in polls and reportedly handed over his resignation letter to Chiranjeevi, who after reading it through, put it away in a folder.
Some members wanted even party vice-president Devender Goud to resign. Hurt by their comments, Goud is understood to have said he didn’t care for the position and walked out in a huff. The meeting was convened to find out reasons for winning a paltry 18 Assembly seats and drawing a blank in Lok Sabha polls. Chiranjeevi, who heads the PAC, listened to all but later backed Aravind, who is also his brother-in-law.
‘‘Aravind, in tune with our social justice slogan, played an important role in allotment of tickets to over 100 BCs who were not financially well off. The allegation that tickets were sold to aspirants is baseless. We do not stoop to that level. Some forces seem to be working actively to malign Aravind’s image,’’ Chiranjeevi told reporters here.

Chiru met with Political affairs Committee of PRP today. While meeting was on, there were news in the media that Allu Arvind resigns.

After the meeting, Chiru spoke to media and said -

1.Some people are purposely doing false propaganda to demoralize the PRP cadres.

2.We have not come in to the politics, we have enough money by God’s grace.

3.We came in to politics with social justice slogan

4. Some forces are purposely defaming Allu Arvind- that he sold the MLA and MP tickets, but it is absolutely wrong.

5. All false allegations on PRP

6 We haven’t quarreled in PAC, we just discussed the reasons for poor performance of the party.

7.We are preparing action plan to bring the party in to power in the next elections.

8.Chiru requested the media not to write false news.

9. Chiru finally gives clean chit to his Bava -Allu Arvind.

Praja Rajyam Party president Chiranjeevi is trying to keep as cooler as possible and is trying to infuse a sort of enthusiasm in the cadres, which are thoroughly disappointed with the party’s performance in the elections.

Chiranjeevi is telling the party leaders and cadres who are coming to meet him to take the people’s verdict as a lesson so that they all should make efforts to strengthen the party in the next five years.

“Don’t worry. We have got 18 seats. Now, we have to think how we make it 10 times more in the next five years,” Chiru is telling the party leaders.

According to PRP sources, Chiranjeevi is contemplating on shedding the dead wood and cleanse the party at all levels. The primary focus is to build up the party from grassroot levels. “We have to follow the Telugu Desam model in building up the organisation at all levels,” the PRP president told the party functionaries.

Ironical it is but the one Telugu Desam leader who strongly pushed party chief N Chandrababu Naidu into forging an alliance with the TRS, Kadiam Srihari, has himself lost the Assembly seat.

A former minister, Srihari was defeated in Station Ghanpur constituency in Warangal district by Congress nominee T Rajaiah by over 10,000 votes. The PRP nominee here, A Ramesh, polled an impressive 25,000 votes and that could have tilted the balance in favour of the Congress.

Srihari, along with Erraballi Dayakar Rao, also from Warangal district, was among the Telangana TDP leaders who not only forced Naidu to change the party’s stance in favour of a separate State but also insisted on an alliance with the TRS.
Dayakar Rao, however, managed to scrape through with a margin of over 2,000 votes in Palakurthy. What could have helped him here was that the PRP candidate polled only 7,000 votes.

In fact, the grapevine has it that both of them entertained hopes of ruling the Telangana state in the event of Telugu Desam forming the government in the State but only with the help of TRS in which case the party might be forced to concede the demand for statehood. Neither has this happened nor has the BJP, which promised a Telangana state within 100 days of coming to power in Delhi, managed to win at the Centre.

A megastar who reigned supreme in a dog-eat-dog tinsel town appears to have gotten over his initial hiccups of falling a prey to the arc lights on him. In the past several months since he launched Praja Rajyam, the party president K. Chiranjeevi was very much in the habit of appeasing his fans, including media persons who were almost in a frenzy all these days.

However, on Monday, while introducing his 17 other colleagues in the Praja Rajyam Legislature Party, still photographers and television cameramen called out, asking him for a ‘Thumbs Up’ with both his hands, a pose that has been oft-repeated by now. Considering the debacle in the hustings and having won just 18 Assembly seats, Mr. Chiranjeevi politely declined, kept his hands close around his chest and flashing his famous grin, refused to give in.

Chiranjeevi ‘s Pressmeet after results

Sources say that from the last few weeks the candidates those have bought tickets from Allu Aravind got doubts and are running behind him to pay back as they would like to withdraw. Even after the election they have forced Aravind to give back at least some percentage of their money as they are not sure of winning.

Grapevine says that then Chiranjeevi has come into scene and said, “Don’t worry. Even if you lose in your constituency, we are coming to power and forming government. You will be given good contracts and your money will always be safe”.

But now the result is out and Allu Aravind himself lost the game fully. We have to see if Allu Aravind gives back the money or runs away, says a victim of Rs 1.5 Cr from Ongole.

Anil Reddy, who contested from Adilabad as PRP candidate took Rs 1 Cr for 2% interest and bought the ticket. He already spent Rs 50 lakh from his pocket. He thought that the ticket is confirmed free of cost as he is close to Allu Aravind. But in the last moment Allu demanded Rs 1 Cr and hence Anil had to go for getting that for interest. Now he lost interest on PRP and is also struggling to pay interest for Rs 1 Cr as well. Even Anil is with anguish and looking if Aravind pays back at least some amount, say sources.
