Jagan Mohan Reddy is preparing for the likely scenario of TDP and Janasena going together. The ruling party is trying to prevent Kapu community from polarising towards the coalition.
Jagan is wooing the family of Mudragada Padmanabham into the party. There are rumours in the district that Mudragada will join the party and his son will get a ticket.
As a part of that, Tuni Ratnachal Express case was also finished. The Prosecution completely let off the case and even the earlier witnesses turned hostile. Vijayawada Railway court struck down the case due to lack of evidence.
By saving certain fringe elements, YSR Congress will portray itself as saviour of the Kapu community. Mudragada will join the party on that plank.
Mudragada already began YSR Congress campaign ever since 2015. He always worked against Telugu Desam Party and one would wonder what advantage he brings for the Ruling’s party.
“Mudragada is already spent force politically. He is an old and weakened warrior in his final days. He contested the 2014 elections as an Independent and lost his deposit. With letting down the agitation after Jagan coming to power, he lost his credibility long ago,” people in East Godavari says.
