Key YSRCP Leader to Join Jana Sena?

Is YS Jagan going to get another shock? Is another key leader going to join Jana Sena? The party sources say yes. It is known that after the alliance government came to power, many YCP leaders quit the party for greener pastures.

Now, it’s the turn of Thota Trimurthulu, MLC from Ramachandrapuram in East Godavari district. It has to be noted that those quitting YSRCP are mostly MLCs.

Just a few days back, MLC Marri Rajasekhar, who was once said to be close to Jagan, quit his post and his membership in the party. Prior to that, MLCs Pothula Sunita, Jayamangala Venkataramana, Karri Padmasri, Balli Kalyana Chakravarthy said goodbye to YSRCP.

It is being widely discussed that Thota Trimurthulu will follow in the same line and join Jana Sena. Thota became an MLA for the first time in Ramachandrapuram in 1994 as an independent candidate.

He joined TDP in 1995 and became an MLA in 1999. In 2008, he joined Chiranjeevi’s Praja Rajyam party. He lost in 2009. But showed his strength once again in 2014. After the division of the state, he went to TDP. In 2019, he left TDP and joined YSRCP.

Now he is on the verge of joining Jana Sena. But Thota has big plans for himself. He wants his son to contest from Ramachandrapuram seat in 2029 from Jana Sena.

He has two and half years left as MLC. He wants to resign from the post and is planning to ask Pawan Kalyan for an MLC seat later. If both his conditions are accepted, it’s just a matter of time for Thota to jump into Jana Sena, say party insiders. He also clicked a picture with Pawan Kalyan during the budget session. This has further sparked speculation about his Jana Sena entry.
