YCP President Jaganmohan Reddy is giving special focus to Vijayawada Lok Sabha segment. As it is the never centre of AP politics, Jagan wants to somehow win this seat by putting up a strong candidate. Already, the ticket was promised to Vijaya Electricals Chairman Dasari Jai Ramesh but his name is being dropped in the changed political circumstances. Jagan feels noted industrialist Potluri Vara Prasad (PVP) is a stronger candidate for this seat.
Accordingly, consultations were held and it is already decided to take PVP into the YCP fold in a day or two. It seems PVP is coming into the party only on the condition of contesting from Vijayawada MP seat. In 2014 elections also, PVP was denied the ticket following which he distanced from the YCP later.
Whoever it is, the fight in Vijayawada MP seat will be one between rich industrialist Kamma candidates. If cleared, PVP will confront TDP’s Kesineni Nani which will lead to a keenly contested election between the two. If Vangaveeti Radha joins TDP, it is being considered a cake walk for Kesineni Nani.
