The BJP leadership’s request for YSRCP support during the ongoing Vice Presidential elections and Jaganmohan Reddy’s immediate acceptance has become an interesting aspect of AP politics. TDP and Jana Sena are partners in the BJP-led alliance. However, several factors make it clear that the BJP national leadership considers Jagan a reliable ally.
The CBI investigation into the murder of former minister YS Vivekananda Reddy is not progressing, and the trial of the CBI and ED cases in which Jagan is the first accused has not started even after 13 years. It is widely believed that Jagan is able to overcome these issues only with the tactical support of the Central government.
TDP and Jana Sena are partners in the NDA and share power in the Center and AP. The coalition parties are implementing new strategies with Jagan as their target in AP. It is understood that Jagan is confident of the support of the Central government to counter them. It seems that Jagan is trying to use his proximity with the Central government politically as well.
The YSRCP has decided to further strengthen its social media department. It was decided to hold a special meeting in the first week of September. At the same time, it has also set up a new IT department at its Delhi headquarters. Special staff has been allocated.
The management responsibilities of this center have been entrusted to Tirupati MP Gurumurthy. Gurumurthy said that it will be used to explain the political developments of the state at the national level. Similarly, he explained that this wing will work to reverse the anti-YCP campaign being carried out at the Delhi headquarters.
This has been indicating that Jaganmohan Reddy is preparing to implement new strategies at the Delhi headquarters in the coming days. With this, it is now becoming interesting to know what Jagan’s decisions will be? After the defeat in the 2024 elections, he started to focus on party activists.
Admitting that he had ignored the cadre when he was in power, he is trying to assure that such a situation will not arise this time. He is quickly responding wherever cases were registered against party leaders and they were arrested. He is also getting ready to tour the districts from Dussehra. Party leaders say that Jagan is likely to attend the monsoon sessions of the assembly to be held next month.
