South Indian political landscape has started to change drastically over the last couple of decades as social media narratives and media presentation have become crucial tools to win the election. So leading politicians are increasingly depending on political strategists to cover their bases and execute winning campaigns.
Former chief minister YS Jagan is no stranger to this mechanism either as he had worked with Prashant Kishor for the stellar 2019 election, which made him the CM with tremendous majority. But he parted ways with PK later, and decided to work with the old IPac team which has horrible results in 2024.
And now the latest social media theories are suggesting that Jagan could be possibly looking at the neighbouring state chief minister Vijay’s political strategist.
Apparently, Jagan is contemplating the idea of employing Kapil Sahu, who happens to be one of the main architects of Thalapathy Vijay’s campaign in Tamil Nadu in the recent election. Apparently, certain talks have been opened between the YCP leadership and this political strategist for a possible collaboration in 2029.
It needs to be noted that if Vijay could execute a seamless election campaign in 2026, and if Kapil Sahu really was an integral part of it, then he would be a great addition to Jagan in Andhra Pradesh as well.
Notably, several YCP Senior leaders openly complained against IPac team and blamed it for the defeat in 2024. So, if at all Jagan decides to change his political machinery, then the introduction of Kapil Sahu might not be a bad idea, and he has the Tamil Nadu success story to show for it as well.
But it is too early to comment on these political strategies as there are still nearly 3 years to go for the election, and Jagan is the kind of person who would take decisions entirely based on his thought process. So we have to patiently wait and see what would be the decision taken by the YCP chief.
