Chandrababu Naidu's party set for Rajya Sabha comeback in Andhra Pradesh bypolls

India Today  

The Election Commission of India announced by-elections to fill three vacant Rajya Sabha seats in Andhra Pradesh, following the resignations of YSR Congress Party members Mopidevi Venkataramana, Beeda Masthan Rao, and R Krishnaiah. This leaves the YSRCP with only eight Rajya Sabha members, as the resignations dealt a significant blow to the party. This past June, the TDP-led NDA alliance comfortably won a strong Assembly majority of 164 seats: 135 seats for Telugu Desam Party, 21 for Jana Sena and eight for the Bharatiya Janata Party. A situation the party hopes to reverse in these elections, unlike earlier this year when the TDP refrained from contesting the Rajya Sabha elections due to lack of sufficient number of MLAs.
