Vijayawada: In a swift move, Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan had welcomed Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s indications on early elections. Reacting to the reports of Chandrababu Naidu’s hint to his party leaders to get ready for the early elections, the Jana Sena chief said his party is ready for the battle even if it is advanced further.
Pawan Kalyan who had begun recruitment of candidates for the party important posts said he would gear up his party for the elections. Pawan Kalyan had already announced that he is out of the NDA, but did not clear whether he would align with the TDP or the Left parties. Though he is soft towards the TDP, he is practically aligning with the Left parties, particularly with the CPI. He is firm on the issues like Special Category Status to the State. He went to the extent of openly criticising the BJP leadership and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for going back on the promise of Special Category Status to the State.
The Jana Sena chief, though did not contest the 2014 elections, had shared the dais with Narendra Modi and Chandrababu Naidu starting from Tirupati where the leaders promised Special Category Status to the State. As chief of Jana Sena, he had promised to the people that he would stand guarantee to the assurances given by the BJP and TDP. Now, with the BJP going back on the promise of Special Category Status and TDP compromising for the special package, it is to be seen whether the Jana Sena chief would align with these parties or stay away from them.
