In the 2019 election, YSR Congress swept all 10 assembly seats in Nellore and made it their fortress. But with the departure of key leaders like Kotamreddy Sridhar Reddy, Anam Ramnarayana Reddy, and Vemireddy Prabhakar Reddy, YCP’s chances in the Nellore district could not be as promising in 2024.
Jagan’s trusted right-hand man, Vijayasai Reddy is designated with the job of carrying out the party’s campaign in Nellore after he was announced as YCP’s Nellore MP candidate. But things aren’t looking very promising for Vijayasai himself either.
In a few viral videos from Vijayasai’s election campaign in Nellore, it can be seen that the crowds are leaving Vijayasai’s campaign venue. We also hear a few YCP leaders shouting into the mic that food arrangements have been made and the public must stay back to listen to Vijayasai’s speech for this incentive.
One of the reasons behind the public dissociation with Vijayasai’s campaign today could be the extreme heat conditions due to summer. Withstanding this extreme heat is a tough task and the public is not ready to challenge such harsh conditions at this point.
With a lot of time left for the polls, the public is not yet in the election mood and that is why many politicians are unable to pull huge crowds. Only stalwarts like Chandrababu, Jagan and Pawan are able to command huge crowds while other second and third-tier politicians are finding it hard, as is seen in the case of Vijayasai Reddy’s Nellore campaign. The natural anti-incumbency will anyway play a role and that could be cited as another reason.
But these viral videos of the crowd leaving Vijayasai’s campaign in Nellore are leaving local YCP cadres concerned about the party’s chances in the Nellore segment. Now, Opposition using these video and trolling VIjaay Sai Reddy.
