NTR to lead break away TDP?
Are IT notices and raids on Chandrababu Naidu and his associates including his ex PS P Srinivas is a clear indication that the BJP top brass is hell bent on breaking the TDP? Sources suggest that the BJP top leadership in Delhi has set to motion a strategy with surgical precision to create major division among the rank and file of TDP.
The BJP leadership is of the firm opinion that unless they break the TDP in Andhra Pradesh, they cannot create a space for itself in AP politics not make any inroads in the state. (NTR to lead break away TDP? )
Recall recent statements made by NTR’s daughter and the newly appointed AP BJP President D Purandeshwari. At a meeting held recently, she spoke about her father and dwelled at length on hos much love and affection senior NTR had on his grand son and Telugu film hero junior NTR.
“My father loved Jr NTR more than his own sons.”
In her entire speech, she gave an indication that NTR would have made the junior succeed him as the TDP head. Logically she would not have made these statements unless she had some indications from her party bosses in Delhi.
Moreover, she and her husband D Venkateswara Rao who was a former minister and MP who was ill treated by Chandrababu Naidu after NTR dethroned as CM and TDP President have an axe to grind.
The game plan of the BJP seems to be to vertically divide the TDP and then the break away faction claim itself as the real TDP and will have an alliance or merge with the BJP as they did in Maharashtra with Shiv Sena Party. Will the Maharashtrian model work in AP, one has to wait and watch.
Thrilled by the IT notices to Chandrababu Naidu, YSRCP media cell came down heavily on Chandrababu and his 100 irregularities and made them go viral on the social media. Meanwhile, the TDP rank and file have went in to total silence over the issue. Jana Sena party chief and Telugu film hero Pawan Kalyan and his fans have also maintained a stoic silence over the matter.
