Lessons for Naidu.TDP Not Invincible

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s First Ever Cabinet Shuffle opened the Pandora Box in TDP. Senior Leaders like Bojjala Gopala Krishna Reddy, Bonda Uma, Chintamaneni Prabhakar, Dhulipala Narendra, Bandaru Satyanarayana irked the Supremo in their own style.

Some went to the extent of resigning, blackmailing and even foul-mouthing the party. This gives an impression that TDP is not invincible as it appears now. All the parties have their own compulsion to stay in the party. But that indicates many of the leaders will jump the fence as and when needed.

This issue may be a passing cloud at least for now given that they do not want to face by-election or go against the government. But then, things will drastically change months before the 2019 elections. We have seen that happening with TDP when PRP and YSR Congress are in their prime.

Naidu should better realize that TDP is not invincible and should find a way out to keep the flock together. Jana Sena if it becomes active and decides to contest full-fledged in 2019, many of the disappointed leaders may look towards it.
