Political equations are changing at supersonic speed in Andhra Pradesh. In the run-up to 2019 elections, with little time for all the parties, almost all of them are competing with each other to whip up passions by raking the special status issue.
It is known that special status issue touches the emotional chord of the people of Andhra Pradesh. While the opposition YSRP led by Jagan Mohan Reddy has been leading marches for special status, the ruling TDP headed by Chandra Babu, pulled out his ministers from the Union Cabinet headed by PM Narendra Modi.
Now Power Star Pawan Kalyan, chief of Jana Sena who is trying to fill in the vacuum presenting himself as the alternative to the other parties, promised to take the special status fight to another level.
Speaking at the Jana Sena plenary celebrating the party's formation day in Guntur, Pawan Kalyan went hammer and tongs on all parties for cheating the people of Andhra Pradesh.
Pawan thundered and promised to sit on a fast unto death for special status for the state. Pawan revealed that he will release Jana Sena manifesto on Aug 14 after interacting with the various NRIs.
Political analysts say that, if Pawan Kalyan will really sit on a fast unto death for special status, Centre would considered the issue seriously and then Jana Sena chief will be in a key position to decide next government in AP in 2019.
