Chalasani Srinivas is one among the few people who were projected as Samaikyandhra heroes. He acted as the president of Intellectuals Forum of AP. It is a known news that some of the pro yellow party's TV channels led the samaikyandhra movement. They gave prime importance to the people like 'Chalasani' to participate in discussion programs on Samaikyandhra struggle. Although the 'Medhavulu' like Chalasani criticized only the congress party and ignored TDP, finally, all of their attempts in stopping state's bifurcation have gone futile.
Even after the bifurcation of the state, Chalasani is frequently seen in TV channels' discussion programs lately. But what matters him to be participated in discussions? This time the issue has been focused on APs new capital. Chalasani seems to have taken up the responsibilities of defending Vijayawada-Guntur region the best location for AP's new capital. Some of the political analysts are suspecting if TDP is encouraging Chalasani and other 'Medhavulu' to support the government decision on AP's new capital. Meanwhile, 'C' factors also play vital role on this issue.
