Gaining Ground Where They Previously Lost!

Pawan Kalyan, the leader of Janasena, contested from Gajuwaka in the 2019 elections and suffered a loss by a margin of approximately 16,000 votes. Despite the passing of nearly four years, he returned to the constituency where he faced defeat, and his presence was met with a warm reception. Proudly proclaiming his connection to Gajuwaka, he received admiration from the locals and announced his party’s continued commitment, stating that the Jana Sena flag will fly high there in the upcoming elections.

In a similar vein, Nara Lokesh, TDP’s National General Secretary, embarked on his Yuvagalam Padayatra which reached Mangalagiri on Tuesday. His entry was marked by an overwhelming welcome from his supporters, with the additional influx of hundreds of YCP and other party members joining TDP’s ranks. Despite narrowly losing the 2019 election in this constituency, Lokesh exhibited perseverance by establishing a local party office and engaging in various social initiatives to foster closer connections with the community.

The adage “Find where you have amassed” holds relevance here. Despite their affiliations with different parties, both Pawan Kalyan and Nara Lokesh have chosen to revisit the constituencies they lost.

The large turnout of their respective party members during these visits underscores the success of their efforts. The Gajuwaka gathering stood strong for Pawan Kalyan, while Mangalagiri resonated with the enthusiasm of Nara Lokesh’s supporters. The true test will be whether this groundswell of support translates into electoral outcomes.
