TRS president K Chandrasekhar Rao’s sudden decision to leave for New Delhi on Thursday evening along with his family led to speculations in political circles that he was up to some game plan to contain the growing rebellion within the party.

Rao, it may be mentioned, is known for creating political drama whenever he smells a crisis in the party. Soon after the polling in the state, he had gone to Delhi and announced his support to NDA, giving an impression that NDA was all set to come to power.

His decision to call off the state executive meeting scheduled to be held on Friday and leave for the national capital had led to all kinds of speculation.

His nephew and party leader T Harish Rao sought to clarify that there was no political agenda in KCR’s Delhi visit. He told the media that KCR had gone to Delhi to take part in the oath-taking ceremony of newly-elected members of Lok Sabha on June 1 and that he would return the next day. But he did not explain why KCR first scheduled the state executive meeting and then left for Delhi abruptly, that too four days ahead of the Lok Sabha session. Harish Rao maintained that KCR’s trip is nothing but a holiday tour which he planned to spend with his family.

Cracks are developing in the TRS monolith after the debacle it has suffered in the recent Assembly and Lok Sabha elections.

Even as a new outfit – Telangana Vimochana Samiti (TVS) – spearheaded by TRS MLC from Warangal K Dileep Kumar is taking birth as an alternative force, newly-elected Medak MP and TRS secretary general Vijayashanthi is reportedly contemplating bidding goodbye to the party. According to sources, Vijayashanthi is planning to quit the party since she believes there is no future for the TRS and it is time she looked for greener pastures. There is, however, no official confirmation about her quitting.

Meanwhile, Dileep Kumar is going ahead with his new outfit. He reportedly decided to have his own organisation after a heated exchange with TRS chief K Chandrasekhara Rao over the decisions taken by the latter in the run up to the polls that brought disastrous results for the party. Though Kumar claims the TVS is an apolitical organisation, its genesis and contours suggest it might emerge as an alternative to the TRS.

Speaking in this regard, Kumar says a political initiative for securing statehood to Telangana has to be backed by a mass movement and the TVS fits the bill in this respect.

That the TVS has seriously got down to the business is evident from the fact that former TRS MP Ravindra Nayak has already declared his support for the outfit apart from some leaders from other parties and intellectuals of the region. The TVS leaders are also in touch with TRS thinktank Prof Jayashankar, Kodandaram and Gadar. Kumar is planning to have a meeting with likeminded persons here tomorrow.

Meanwhile, raising his voice against the `unilateral’ decisions of TRS chief Chandrasekhara Rao, especially in allotment of tickets, that allegedly led to the poor performance of the party in the polls, Ravindra Naik said, “If the TRS chief does not change his attitude, the party will fold up very soon.” “Today, the TRS is KCR’s family party,” he further said indicating a growing resentment in the party over the manner in which the party chief is functioning.

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.

Prajarajyam president K Chiranjeevi on Sunday came under a scathing attack from his former aide Parakala Prabhakar, with the latter accusing him of forcing candidates to part with their movable and immovable assets in return for a ticket of the party.

Addressing a crowded media conference, Parakala, who quit PRP a month ago accusing it of functioning like a company, said that the PRP bosses owed people of Andhra Pradesh a public apology. He said his allegations against the PRP bosses before he quit the party were vindicated by the poor mandate to the party. He also said that Saturday’s verdict was a slap on the face of people who tried to hoodwink the voter through their theatrical performances.

He said people in Telangana, Rayalaseema and coastal Andhra buried PRP in the elections without a trace as they could see the hidden agenda of the PRP bosses. This verdict would also deter any other actor from taking to politics with an ulterior motive. “Bosses who thought they would be voted because of their glamour have been shown their place in real life,” he said.

Parakala alleged that PRP bosses forced aspirants to part with their movable and immovable assets like finances, plots, houses, land parcels and cinema halls in return for a ticket of the party. “The day is not far away when you will hear news about people asking PRP bosses to return their respective properties that were forcibly taken away from them. I personally feel that the PRP bosses will return these assets if candidates who feel cheated insist for the same at the earliest, as there have been instances wherein they have returned money to candidates after failing to allot a seat to them,” he pointed out.

Parakala said Chiranjeevi was suffering from a disorder which psychiatrists describe as an illusion of grandeur, wherein people start to feel that they are able to visualize the shape of things to come according to their wishes. “It takes only six months for him to get cured,” he pointed out.

Parakala said the election results showed that PRP’s edifice was built on deceit and mistrust. “Personal agenda was of paramount importance to PRP, hence they were rejected at the hustings,” he said.

Urging the PRP bosses to do a thorough introspection, Parakala suggested them to approach the Registrar of Companies to register and later shut it down in the interests of the people of Andhra Pradesh. They (PRP bosses) neither cared for the candidates nor received their phones all through the elections. “The ones who could win was only because of their respective personal charisma and efforts,” he said.

Major irrigation minister P Lakshmaiah, who won with a wafer-thin margin of 44 votes may lose his cabinet post, sources said. Lakshmaiah may be considered for the post of the PCC chief. The possibility of making him the Assembly Speaker also cannot be discounted.

YSR will also have to search for a suitable Muslim candidate to replace energy minister Mohd Shabbir Ali who lost the polls. Among the new faces who are likely to be inducted into the cabinet are chief whip N Kiran Kumar Reddy, D Sridhar Babu, D L Ravindra Reddy, B Usharani (another giant killer from Palakollu who defeated Chiranjeevi) and K Rambhupal Reddy from Panyam in Kurnool district. However, the selection of the aspirants would have to be based on the caste and regional equations, party sources said.

The Congress Legislature Party is likely to meet on Monday to elect YSR as the leader. He is expected to take oath as CM on May 20 and leave for Bethlehem on May 23 on pilgrimage.

Reddy is scheduled to return on May 30 after which the Assembly would meet for a fullfledged budget session in the first week of June.

It is now clear that Kapus of the region have indeed backed Chiranjeevi’s Prajarajyam Party so blindly but that did not ensure the party to come out with flying colours at the hustings. The PRP candidates though lost the elections have polled between 15-50 thousand votes. The only factor that seemed to have gone against Chiru’s party is that it lacked support from other communities such as BCs, SCs and minorities.

It is evident from the fact that all the three candidates, who won the election for PRP in the region are non-Kapus. While two of them are Vysyas, the other is a Kamma. The Kapu leaders, who considered themselves strong, have lost the elections because they run the show only around Kapu voters whereas the victorious leaders had the support from other communities in addition to the Kapu votes.

The PRP nominees have virtually played spoilsport with many of the Congress candidates in Krishna district. For instance, minister Mandali Budhaprasad lost the election at Avanigadda with a thin margin of just 417 votes where the PRP candidate Ramesh polled 37,656 votes. Here the TDP nominee Ambati Bramhanaiah turned victorious only because of the backing of BCs.

Another minister Pinnamaneni Venkateswara Rao lost the election to TDP’s Kodali Nani at Gudivada with a margin of about 17,000 votes where the PRP candidate polled about 21,000 votes. Though former Congress legislators and PRP’s Buragadda Vedavyas and Vangaveeti Radhakrishna secured 35,000 and 51,000 votes respectively, they could not snatch victories due to the drifting away of other community votes.

Vedavyas jumped the fence only a few weeks before the polls to PRP and contested from Machilipatnam constituency. His migration to the all-new Machilipatnam constituency seems to have not got the acceptance of the other communities in the constituency as they believe that he shifted to Machilipatnam from his native Pedana (previously he represented Malleswaram) only keeping in view of the strong Kapu vote base in the port town.

Curiously, Vedavyas came third way behind TDP’s Kollu Ravindra, a BC. Nani won the seat with a majority of 11,399 votes. In all, the PRP polled a good 4,78,774 votes in Krishna district but it returned with only two assembly seats out of the 16 at stake. While the ruling Congress secured seven seats with 9.02 lakh votes, TDP too bagged an equal number of seats with 9.14 lakh votes.

Except for the lightweight PRP nominee at Jaggiahapet, Kota Kishore who got 2043, all others -B Ramu (Gannavaram-19,806), R V Rao (Gudivada-21,582), K Srinivas (Kaikalur-49,372), M Veerraju (Pedana-29,172), M Mohan Rao (Pamarru-23,438), M Vijayanirmala (Nuziveedu-24,786), D Mohan (Penamalur-31,868) polled handsome votes.

Even in Guntur new faces like M Sudhakar (Macherla-16,368), T Venkatesh (Ponnur-30,247), K Vijayakumar (Narasaraopet-17,220), D Chakravarthi (Sattenapalle-25,522), Katti Padma Rao (Vemur-23,300), Santhi Jyothi (Tadikonda-15,969) and Seetharamaiah (Bapatla-15,911) secured good votes.

It was rather embarrassing and shocking news when reports came in from Chiranjeevi’s supposedly strongest areas – East and West Godavari districts. It is heard that the locals there broke into immediate celebrations on late Saturday evening until early Sunday. Folks there were said to be rejoicing over the news of the megastar’s humiliating defeat. It is said that even Prajarajyam party workers were seen distributing sweets when the news of Allu Aravind’s Anakapalli defeat was announced.

A resident of East Godavari was saying that they are very happy. They added that both Chiranjeevi and Allu Aravind were selling tickets in their first election even before they came to power and if they had won they would have ransacked the state. Party workers and residents of the twin districts were saying that they wanted to see Chiru as the chief minister but now they have given up the hope out of pure disgust. One of the PRP leaders added that parties get corrupted only after a few years into politics, but in PRP, this began right from the start. Another PRP leader said that the faith of Chiranjeevi and his family in Aravind has resulted in the debacle and alleged that they were least interested to take the opinion of the cadre at any level, he added.

Another allegation is that tickets were given to “unworthy candidates,” neglecting the lists that were given by the cadre. The biggest complaint is that Allu Aravind stood as a barrier between them and Chiranjeevi and this was the main reason why the party was wiped out totally. Many say that Allu Aravind deserved to lose. They mention that he has not only misled Chiranjeevi on important issues but he isolated many leaders and forced them to leave the party. It is also said that Aravind was busy selling tickets without even checking the credentials of the candidates.

It is also being said that when the party cadre had suggested that Chiranjeevi should contest from Narasapuram constituency, he chose Palakollu. This is a good example of how careless the party leadership was when it came to the aspirations of the party cadre, they added. However there still seems to be some loyalty to Chiru as few fans were saying that the celebrations in the two districts were not right. They were heard saying that they cannot see Chiru being insulted by party workers. However, such sentiments were said to be in rather meager quantities.

With so much happening, it has become clear that the ‘Maarpu’ that Chiranjeevi has talking about all this while has happened to his image and his popularity and he seems to have lost a lot more than just an election. Mega fans are now saying that it is time Chiru realizes where his mistakes are rectifies them before he becomes history in politics.

The Congress has 157 seats in the 294-member assembly, while the Telugu Desam-led Mahakutami could win only 106 seats, including 91 for TDP, 10 for TRS, four for CPI and one for CPI-M. The PRP remained a poor third with 18 seats. Others could get 13 seats, including two BJP, one Lok Satta, seven MIM and three independents.

The election results have surprised the poll-pundits, who were predicting that there would be a hung assembly in the state this time and that the seats of PRP would be crucial in deciding the fate of the new government.

There are many reasons for the victory of the Congress in the assembly elections. The main reason is that it was completely a positive vote for the Congress government. In the last five years, the YSR government had fulfilled all its promises on implementing welfare and development programmes. The schemes implemented by the Congress government fetched YSR the victory. Thus, there was no anti-incumbency factor this time. The anti-government vote, if any, was split between the TDP and the PRP. Secondly, the alliance with the TRS proved to be a nemesis for the TDP. The TRS has not only fared poorly even in the Telangana strongholds, but also spoiled the chances of the TDP. This was evident from the way the Congress won more than 40 seats in Telangana region. There was no transfer of votes even among the TDP and the Communist parties in many areas.

And the PRP also spoiled the TDP chances. Chiranjeevi’s social justice slogan failed to impress the people and he heavily banked on caste polarisation, especially the Kapu factor in the coastal Andhra, hoping to eat into the Congress vote bank. But, it could only eat into the TDP votes, damaging the latter’s prospects. Chiranjeevi himself lost his Palacole assembly segment in his native West Godavari district, though he won the Tirupati seat with a meagre margin of around 10,000 votes. Analysts say the TDP would have benefitted much, had there been no PRP in the fray; or there should have been an alliance between the Congress and the TDP.

Finally, the TDP’s much-hyped cash transfer scheme and supply of free colour televisions to the poor also have failed to make any impact on the electorate.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, who led Congress party back to power in the state in 2004, was Saturday re-elected to the assembly from Pulivendula constituency in his native Kadapa district.

YSR, as the chief minister is popularly known, retained the seat with a majority of 69,092 votes. His nearest rival was S.V. Satish Kumar Reddy of Telugu Desam Party (TDP).

YSR, who is all set to become the chief minister again, had defeated Satish Kumar Reddy by over 41,000 votes in 2004.

He has now won the seat for the third consecutive term. He had earlier represented this constituency for three terms from 1978 to 1985.

YSR’s rival and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president N. Chandrababu Naidu retained the Kuppam assembly seat in his native Chittoor district. He defeated Congress party’s M. Subramanyam Reddy by a margin of 46,000 votes.

Naidu has won the seat for the fifth consecutive term. However, the victory margin has come down. He was elected in 2004 elections with a majority of over 60,000 votes.
