Andhra Pradesh Assembly polls | Having overcome the internal squabbles Roja eyes for a ‘hat-trick’
The HinduThe politically sensitive constituency of Nagari located at the southernmost tip of the State is all-set to witness a high voltage electoral battle with the ruling YSRCP and TDP-led alliance locking their horns. While, the Tourism Minister and present MLA RK Roja is eyeing for a hat-trick, the TDP contestant Gali Bhanuprakash is leaving no stone unturned to upset her apple cart and win the assembly segment, once represented by his father the late Gali Muddu Krishnama Naidu. Roja who is bestowed with ruthless ability to tear into the opposition parties with her rambunctious remarks, was rather forced to spend sleepless nights with dissident groups led by Chairman of Srisalam Devasthanam trust board, Reddivari Chakrapani Reddy and former Municipal Chairman KR Kumar along with the leaders of five mandals defiantly opposing her candidature. Jagan’s close confidante P. Mitun Reddy along with YV Subba reddy and Advisor Sajjal Ramakrishna Reddy closetted with the dissent leaders and convinced them to work for her victory. Though there are no cognizable internal squabbles that have the potentiality to jeopardize the prospects of the party, the differences within his family members particularly with his younger brother Gali Jagadish prasad who also claims the political legacy of his late father has however emerged as a matter of concern.
