The BJP released list of party candidates for the MP and MLA seats and as expected it was disappointing for Kanumuri Raghu Ramakrishna Raju’s supporters. RRR’s name did not appear in the list.
The Narasapuram Parliamentary constituency was given to AP BJP state secretary Srinivas Varma.
The party leadership has asked some of the seniors to contest for the Assembly segments. It is learnt that the party bigwigs even asked the leaders what can the leadership do if everyone demands for MP seats.
The tentatively finalized list of Lok Sabha candidates for the BJP is as follows:
** Rajahmundry- Purandeshwari
** Anakapalli- CM Ramesh
** Araku- Kothapalli Geetha
** Rajampet- Kiran Kumar Reddy
** Tirupati- Varaprasad
** Narasapuram- Srinivasa Varma (AP BJP State Secretary)
What shocking from the above list is, the missing of Raghurama Krishna Raju name, who called as ‘The Real Opposition in AP’, who stands all the odds against Jagan, From couple of days there we rumours that AP Cm Jagan seriously trying to stop RRR entry into BJP, looks like Jagan succeed in it.
Additionally, the BJP has almost confirmed its Assembly candidates:
** Echcherla: Nadikuditi Ishwar Rao
** Vijayawada West: Sujana Chaudhary
** Badwelu: Panatala Suresh
** Adoni: Pardasaradhi
** Paaderu: Uma Maheswara Rao
** Dharmavaram: Varadapuram Suri or Satyakumar
** Jammalamadugu: Adinarayana Reddy
** Kaikaluru: Kamineni Srinivas or Tapana Chaudhary
** Vizag North: Vishnukumar Raju
These selections highlight the BJP’s strategy and alliances in Andhra Pradesh as they gear up for the upcoming elections.
