Other than YSR's supporters and sympathizers of Jagan, main target of YSR-CP are the backward classes, especially Christian minorities of the state. With Paul's entry there may be a split in the votes of these minorities, feel analysts. 'They have roped in KA Paul to split our vote bank. Paul started his moves in the state politics with the support of TDP', stresses an YSR CP leader.
The presence of TDP veteran, Lal Jan Basha at a press meet organized by KA Paul's 'Prajashanti Party' raised curtains about TDP's collaboration with him. However, TDP sleuths are saying that their leader joined Paul only to extend his support for fight against corruption. There is a chance of Paul pulling few seats in Christian minority dominated areas and joining hands with TDP after the election. Earlier too, TDP leader, speaker late GMC Balayogi and Paul used to have good rapport which shows his closeness with Telugudesam.
