Old habits die hard they say. But when it is religiously followed in politics, you can be in real trouble.
There is one such habit TDP picked up in the ruling and could not let it go even while it is in Opposition. Between 2014-19, TDP leaders used to give scores of interviews to a YouTube Channel.
The slips in those interviews were used against the party on WhatsApp and they played a significant role in the party’s 2019 defeat. Who would forget Jaleel Khan’s B.Com Physics episode? One such YouTube Channel owner landed in a plum post after Jagan came to power.
Even after the defeat, TDP leaders do not learn and continue to give interviews for YouTube channels that are after sensations just for the sake of Thumbnails. The other day, former MLA Bonda Uma landed on one such channel and made completely unwarranted comments on Junior NTR.
The clip has gone viral on social media bringing fame to the Channel and brickbats to TDP. It comes as a total surprise how the party leaders walk into the same tramp despite facing the music already.
