Hyderabad, Aug 2023 (Hydnow): The TDP’s fresh decision to contest in all Assembly constituencies in the upcoming Telangana elections triggered a debate on possible vote split in multi-cornered fights between the ruling BRS and the Opposition congress and BJP.
Opposition parties express concern, though the TDP is maintaining a small cadre and support, every vote counts and has a big value in the hustings. Since the TDP has been branded as a backward-class political outfit, the KCR party is likely to face some hurdles in wooing some BC sections in case the TDP fields candidates in BC-dominated segments.
The Congress also fears that TDP in the election fray will polarise the anti-incumbency votes, The BJP is also analyzing the TDP impact in the polls. Predictions say the winning margin between the BRS and Congress will be narrow and the TDP may spoil the winning chances of both parties in some segments. TDP National President N.chandrababu Naidu on Tuesday said his party had begun an exercise to field candidates in all 119 segments. The party committee consisting of senior leaders is conducting a study on its strengths and weaknesses segment-wise.

A senior leader said, “TDP is still holding the grip in some segments in the old Nalgonda, Warangal and Old Ranga Reddy districts. The BC leadership is strong enough in some segments. Meanwhile, the BRS, Congress, and BJP leadership started to poach senior TDP leaders who were not active in some segments where they held sway during the TDP regime in the erstwhile Andhra Pradesh. TDP leaders from the Goud, Yadav, Mudiraj, and Kapu communities are still influencing voters in rural Telangana. They will be contacted and invited to the party. The Congress leaders said BCs are being given majority tickets in the ensuing elections. The senior TDP leaders will be requested to support the party in the crucial polls likely to be held by the year-end. (Hydnow)
