  • Telangana state to witness political heat waves in rainy season
  • For which party it will fetch?

Hyderabad:  When political leaders are desperate to bring their party into limelight or to power, the only weapon left for them is “paadayatra’. We have seen late Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy, who first started walkathon in the year 2003 which fetched him the CM’s chair and Congress was able to remain in power for more than 10 years. After that TDP Supremo Chandrababu Naidu followed the same footsteps and became Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh post bifurcation. Jagan Mohan Reddy, now CM of AP State also made a mammoth paadayatra walking  record breaking length.

Y.S. Sharmila, of YSRTP, who will launch the party officially on July 8 has  a plan to cover total 33 districts through paadayatra. She knows very well that only it can make the party strong in a short span of one year. She did it earlier from Telangana to Andhra and got mileage for her speeches. She is keen on remaining with the people for more than a year. One has to see how people of Telangana would receive her as she is doing it now after State bifurcation.

Revanth Reddy, new TPCC chief, also has a  plan to start yatra in coming days. He doesn’t want to lose any opportunity to bring Congress to power. His ‘Rythu Bharosa Yatra’ fetched him a good response and party sources say it is due to that paadayatra,  the Congress High Command had appointed him as TPCC president. He has to pacify seniors, dissidents and bring fresh blood into the party which is a difficult task. As per party sources, Revanth will reshuffle convenors, district presidents, before his action plan starts.
