There is no denying that Congress is known for its group politics, and those with a voice always try to have upperhand.
YS Sharmila called for a State Working Committee meeting for her party, YSRTP, in Hyderabad and announced that the party would contest in 119 constituencies. She also revealed her intent to contest from two seats, with one being Paleru. She said, initially, we considered joining forces with Congress to avoid splitting the anti-vote, but that plan didn’t materialize, she stated.
Political observers suggest that Revanth Reddy is wearing a smile of success as YS Sharmila’s attempt to form an alliance with Congress, and the subsequent breakdown of the merger deal, plays into his hands.
In either scenario, Sharmila could become a formidable and influential figure in Congress, but Revanth Reddy highly successful in keeping Sharmila away from Congress.
