YSR Congress has taken one more drubbing in the hands of TDP, the second time in a week’s time with Kakinada Municipal Elections. Both the defeats came at the time when YSR Congress cadre is charged after the party plenary and is preparing for the 2019 elections.
The margin of defeats is so high that there is a sense of disbelief in the cadre about the party’s 2019 readiness even though Jagan was trying to put a brave face until now. There are also problems for the proposed Padayatra since High Court refused to exempt from Personal Appearance in court every Friday.
Jagan spearheaded the Nandhyal campaign by campaigning for 13 days on a trot while the Number Two in the party, Vijaya Sai Reddy shouldered the responsibility of Kakinada Campaign. Since there is no courage to other leaders to question them, there is no accountability to these losses whatsoever.
Reviewing the defeat is never a habit of Jagan and now there are doubts as well on the performance of Political Strategist, Prashant Kishore as well. With the next assembly elections just one and half years away, future looks extremely bleak and the party is trying to cover it up with loud mouths like Chevireddy, Kodali Nani, Roja, and others.
