TDP president Nara Chandrababu Naidu‘s decision to boycott the Parishad elections in the state of Andhra Pradesh seems to have a negative impact on TDP.
The TDP suffered a devastating defeat in the Gram Panchayat elections in Chandrababu’s own constituency Kuppam.
Chandrababu decided to boycott the Parishad elections. Not only the TDP but other parties like Janasena are also demanding that a new notification be issued for the conduct of ZPTC and MPTC elections.
They are demanding the SEC to cancel the process that has taken place so far. However, the new AP SEC Neelam Sawnheyi decided that the process should continue and no new notification was required.
It seems Chandrababu has given a better chance to the BJP-Janasena alliance by keeping the TDP out of the race. Janasena boycotted a meeting organized by the SEC with political parties. However, it remains to be seen whether the BJP-Janasena alliance will compete and win over the ruling party.
Some of the political pundits are of the view that even if defeated, the cadre needs to compete to survive in AP. However, Chandrababu’s decision was not politically encouraged.
