After the announcement of the first list of candidates, Chandrababu Naidu, the leader of the TDP, has been holding discussions with discontented leaders from various constituencies. In these discussions, he emphasized the importance of respecting the party’s decision and cooperating with the chosen candidates.
Chandrababu clarified that the selection of candidates was based on surveys, political mobilizations, and public opinion. He urged leaders who were not given a ticket not to perceive it as a lack of value but rather as a decision made for the greater benefit of the party. Many leaders assured him that they would abide by the party’s decision and work towards its success.
Specifically, discussions were held with leaders who expressed dissatisfaction with the choice of candidate for the Shinganamala (SC) seat in Anantapur district. Chandrababu explained that the decision was made based on public opinion gathered through surveys.
Former MLC Tippeswamy from Madakasira (SC) constituency in the same district was also summoned. He was asked to support the selected candidate, Anil Kumar, and ensure victory. Tippeswamy expressed concerns raised by activists but was told that the decision was survey-driven.
Chandrababu met with Pawan Kumar Reddy, son of former minister JC Diwakar Reddy, who requested consideration for his candidature in the Anantapur MP seat. Chandrababu assured them that their requests would be considered.
In another instance, followers of Shankar Yadav, former MLA of Tamballapalle, protested against him not being given a ticket. Following this, Chandrababu engaged in discussions with Shankar, who sought the support of activists and appealed for a chance to contest.
