Rayapati Praises CM And Distances From Party

Guntur district politics are taking an interesting turn with each passing day. This is because of the rift between Rayapati Sambasiva Rao and Kanna Lakshminarayana's groups.

With the issue of Guntur Urban SP Syam Sundar and Gopi Priya's case going cold after a couple of weeks, Rayapati has now taken a new thing to irk state Congress. Earlier, Rayapati group accused that Kanna group is responsible for the transfer of Syam, who is working honestly for Guntur city. Now, Rayapati made it clear that he is concerned about the upcoming by-polls in a couple of constituencies in district. 'Elections convener for the district will take care about party's performance in the by-poll. I'm not worried about it', Rayapati said.

It is none other than Kanna, who is taking care of the by-polls as he is the in-charge minister from Guntur. To cover-up his exit, clever Rayapti claimed that CM Kiran is doing well and only anti-forces in congress are propagating leadership change news. Though he praised CM intelligently, he distanced from party affairs once again as usual weakening the chances of Congress in Guntur.

Polls In Andhra - Problems In Telangana! Any Link?

When an ambassador from AICC headquarters is present in the state, it is clearly understood that he is setting things upright for the coming by-polls. Will discussing T-issue with him gives any outcome? But our T-Congress leaders are squeezing oil out of sand now.

T-Cong leaders have asserted that if Congress takes a decision of partition of state immediately to form Telangana, then 99% of the vote banks will favor towards them in coming general elections. 'The more we delay, it will be suicidal for the future of Congress in Telangana', stated K Keshava Rao to AICC member Vayilar Ravi. When the party is trying all possible ways to get a perfect favored outcome in Andhra by-polls, the shouts of T-MPs in Ravi's ears are not getting attention, say insiders. If at all, Congress looses all 18 seats in the upcoming mini election, they may think of ways to retain power either by splitting state or by changing CM.

As long as Congress hopes to do well in Andhra region, how come the voice of T-MPs will be cared is the question of opposition now. However, political observers say that Congress T-MPs are doing all this hungama as they should not face a stark remark from TRS, TDP and BJP for not raising their T-voice in front of Vayilar Ravi.

Who Is Writing Dialogues For Chandrababu?

These days, watching the election campaign speeches of TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu is like watching a mass movie of a top action hero. Punch dialogues and strong comments are part of his words, giving us a feel that some movie writers are behind him.

A look at his recent dialogues like 'State government's remote in Sonia's hand', 'It's no Gandhi Bhavan, its brandy bhavan' and 'Delhi leaders always leave Hyderabad with suitcases' are giving us this thought. Every day, Chandrababu is making clear that he will deliver a punch dialogue which the media can use for sensational stuff.

TDP sources are saying that there is no need for their leader to hire someone to write such words. 'Those dialogue are coming from the bottom of his heart after losing patience with the ruling of this corruption-hit government', says a Telugudesam leader. So, politicians can also write dialogues, not only the top directors and writers of Telugu Cinema industry.

Jagan's death blow to Congress and TDP

If the YSR Congress party manages to win majority of the seats in the upcoming by-polls, then it will a death blow to both Congress and TDP as the big bunch of their leaders might join the Jagan's camp.

According to the recent surveys, the YSR Congress party has a clear edge over the others and they will be win the majority of the seats. Indications are that these developments may lead to the mid-term polls in the state. And the mid-term polls will benefit the Jagan's party in Seemandhra and TRS in Telangana region.

On the other hand, both ruling Congress and opposition TDP are trying desperately to win atleast few seats to save their face. While the Chief Minister is using his Prajapatham program as campaign for the by-polls, the TDP chief Chandrababu has been busy touring the by-poll constituencies. The outcome of these by-elections will set the course for the next general elections in the state.

CM Kiran Showers Election-Gifts In Vizag

Chief Minister Kiran Kumar has taken a different route finally to convince the voters. Like they say, he hasn't stick to what party people are thinking, but showered gifts in his own style.

As part of 'PrajaPatham' program, CM Kiran reached Nakkapalli of Vizag district today and showered gifts on poor and backward communities. A 50 bed hospital, special school for fisherman's children and 50% reservations for them in many areas are some of the offerings. Three thousand gas connections are also part of CM's 'Pandora box' for poor. Kiran regretted for the plight of state which is getting elections within a gap of three months. He quipped that the muhurat he took oath as CM seems a bad one for this turmoil both in state and in Congress.

Observers feel that CM is using government's treasure to lure voters on to Congress' side. In the mean time, CM not only sweetened the mouths of poor but took his time to attack Jagan and Chandrababu.

'Decision on 'T' before August, If Congress wins By-polls'

Congress leaders are finally giving some solid statements about the on-going Telangana agitation that is shaking Andhra Pradesh politics. The firebrand Congress MP opened his mouth after long time but only to confuse Andhra voters.

Lagadapati Rajgopal went calm after his party lost in the T-area by-polls and surfaced in media today, explaining Congress' view about Telangana. 'High command will take a decision on Telangana, acceptable to 80% of people, by coming August', Lagadapati said. He added twist to it by saying that it will happen only if Congress wins all 18 seats in upcoming by-polls. 'We're the ones who can give solution to the problems created by all parties,' he said criticizing TDP and YSR-CP for not clearing their stand on T-issue.

Political observers are shocked with these words of Lagadapati, as they cannot find a link between Congress winning seats in Seemandhra (17 seats) to solve Telangana issue. Or is he giving an indirect hint that if people votes for Congress they will get a separate state soon? Then people may incline towards TDP as most people from Andhra region are opposing a separate state at the moment.

YSR Party Unhappy With Pre-Poll Survey

YSR Congress party looks irritated with the predicted results of various constituencies in the coming by-polls. The results predicted by a popular Telugu daily have showed this party in a poor light, irking its top bosses.

The survey conducted by Andhra Jyothi states that Congress will win three seats, TDP and YSR two each in coastal belt among seven constituencies. However, they marked out that 'Caste' is going to play a crucial role in these poll results. This has irked YSR party sleuths as they are seriously believing that resigned MLAs will win again on sympathy.

'AJ predicted TDP's win in Kovur and we all know what happened there', a YSR party worker stated. However, the situation prior to naming of Jagan as Accused No.1 in CBI charge sheet is different, feels analysts. 'People started opening their eyes and alerting their ears this time. They know what happens to state if Jagan is given power', a TDP leader stressed. On the other hand Congress is going silent with its own plans to woo the vote-bank and may start their stringent attack on Jagan soon.
