TDP’s victory in both Nandyal and Kakinada has more than what it seem to be. This is a clear mandate for the ruling party in many ways. Of all of them, what is striking is Kapus support to TDP. Kapus, who played crucial role in the polls, have backed TDP unanimously. It is evident with Kakinada Municipal results where Kapus are the dominant players in the region. And they have voted for TDP despite Mudragada’s Kapu agitation.
Almost on a daily basis, Kapu crusader Mudragada slung mud on TDP and CM Chandrababu Naidu over ‘Kapu reservations’. Yet it has least impact on Kapu voters.
In fact, many local TDP leaders had feared that the Kapu sentiment would effect their prospects. But clearing the air, Kapus sailed with TDP. Even in Nandyal, the population of Kapu’s (balija) voters can’t be ruled out. It is estimated that over 40,000 voters belong to the community. And most of them have voted for TDP.
TDP’s senior leaders opine that Naidu’s 1000 Crore yearly allocation to Kapu community and appointment of a new committee for the community seems to have worked in TDP’s favour. Political analysts are looking it other way. They feel that Kapu voters have instilled great confidence on Naidu’s leadership and hope that he would resolve the issue of reservations amicably.
On other hand, Naidu’s significant step to provide scholarships to poor students among OCs for higher-studies have left an indelible mark on youth voters as well as their parents. All these seem to have brought victory for TDP in Nandyal, Kakinada. Of course, people are vexed with Jagan’s hatred politics.
