The YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) is currently experiencing a notable exodus, with several key leaders transitioning to opposition parties like the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Jana Sena Party (JSP). Among those considering a move is a senior leader from Prakasam district, recognized for his close relationship with Jagan, who is reportedly planning to leave YSRCP after securing assurances from TDP.

In the Prakasam region, Balineni, a prominent figure and Jagan’s relative, has made the leap to Jana Sena, prompting Buchepalli Sivaprasad Reddy to step in as the new district president for YSRCP. Meanwhile, speculation is rife about former minister Manugunta Mahidhar Reddy potentially following suit. His frustrations intensified after Jagan sidelined him for the Kandukur MLA seat, raising questions about his loyalty to the party.

As the political landscape in Prakasam continues to evolve, Mahidhar Reddy’s perspective seems to be shifting, particularly after engaging with former colleagues who are now aligned with TDP. With a rich political legacy and multiple terms as an MLA, Mahidhar’s growing dissatisfaction has led him to withdraw from YSRCP activities, including removing Jagan’s images from his office.

Amidst these developments, there are strong indications that Mahidhar Reddy might join TDP, where he has reportedly been offered a significant position with the backing of Chandrababu Naidu. In light of this, YSRCP leaders are making concerted efforts to reconnect with him, hoping to retain his allegiance. As the situation unfolds, clarity on Mahidhar Reddy’s final decision is anticipated soon.
