KTR predicts Jagan victory in AP. BRS Leadership's stance on Jagan winning Andhra Pradesh appears to be driven by their strategic considerations. With BRS already engaged in battles with Congress and BJP for its survival, having Chandrababu Naidu as the CM of Andhra Pradesh would only add to their challenges. Therefore, they are actively promoting Jagan and the YSR Congress to avoid having another adversary in power.
This desperation is evident in their recent actions, such as KCR's prediction of Jagan's victory in a live channel interview and KTR's unusual interview with Sakshi Channel. KTR, known for being selective about his interviews, chose an unknown anchor on Sakshi, a move that raised eyebrows. The interview seemed impromptu, and the YSR Congress's social media team was quick to capitalize on it, indicating a coordinated effort.
In the interview, KTR mentioned feedback from his friends in Andhra Pradesh and settlers in Hyderabad, who believed Jagan would win. However, this comment backfired and became a subject of ridicule on social media, with many questioning KTR's choice of sources. Critics argue that KTR should have more reliable sources for Telangana reports, given his position and the party's recent electoral setbacks.
Overall, BRS's efforts to support Jagan and the YSR Congress in Andhra Pradesh reflect their strategic maneuvering in the face of political challenges, but they also highlight the disconnect between the party leadership and ground realities, as evidenced by their recent electoral surprises and lack of grassroots connection.
