It was the worst ever moment that the Congress party faced both at the center and at the united AP state during the bifurcation of the united AP. Although every political party was the culprit of dividing the state, the Congress party was only criticized and yellow media did the job splendidly to put all the blame on the Congress party.
As the Congress party appeared to have bit the dust miserably in 2014, bigwigs of the party joined other political parties like the BJP and the TDP. Then union cabinet minister Kavuri, union minister of state with independent charge, Purandeswari also stood as the defectors by joining the BJP.
Then union minister Megastar Chiranjeevi was also thought of joining any other political party in 2014, as speculated by some political analysts. Leaving a shocker to everyone, Chiranjeevi kept himself intact with the Congress party itself. As such, it was evident that Chiranjeevi was not greedy about ministerial posts joining other political parties.
As we know, it was recently rumoured that Chiranjeevi would be joining the BJP. And the gossips were spread by some national media apart from a few yellow media. Hearing the gossips, some of the inside sources are expressing their surprise. " Chiranjeevi did not leave the Congress party, in spite of knowing the fact that the party was not in a position to win even a single seat in AP and at the center. And now, BJP is facing anti incumbency and lost the general elections of a few states. The party will get troubled waters for next general elections. At this frame work, how can the yellow media speculate Chiranjeevi deserting the Congress and would be joining the BJP? The reason for their speculations is due to degrade Chiranjeevi's image. They understood the values being maintained by Chiranjeevi in politics as such they conspired to demean Chiranjeevi by circulating the above rumours," they say.
