Gulte Telugu news
Following its defeat in the recently held Assembly elections, the BRS seems to have lost enthusiasm with the party office in Hyderabad wearing a deserted look.
The party leaders also lack the vigour in campaigning for the upcoming Parliamentary elections. There is a lull in the party activities even as the general elections are approaching fast. BRS party president and former CM K. Chandrasekhar Rao announced the names of the candidates for 11 LS constituencies of the total 17 and is expected to declare the names for other segments very soon.
However, he has not yet finalised the strategy to be applied for each constituency. With the party cadre at the grassroots-level also not showing much interest in the electioneering, the party’s presence in the election scene is limited.
Meanwhile, the party chief’s daughter and Nizamabad MLC K. Kavitha’s arrest by the ED sleuths in connection with the multi-crore Delhi Liquor scam is proving to be another deterrent to the party.
Further, the Congress, under the leadership of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, is also posing a challenge to the BRS in winning the LS elections what with many of the party leaders switching sides to the ruling party, one after the other.
The BJP is also keen on winning some LS seats in the upcoming elections and having won four seats during the 2019 elections, the party is expecting to push the figure further.
The MIM which had been with the BRS when it was in power, is now singing a different tune trying to get close with the Congress after the latter requested MIM MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi to act as the pro-tem speaker in the Assembly.
Gradually, the BRS leaders are apparently feeling that the party is losing steam as the party’s lofty goal of separate Telangana had become a reality and the public is disappointed with the party leaders for not being able to realise ‘Bangaru Telangana’.
