Ever since YS Sharmila announced her party in Telangana, there has been a lot of political debate in the state. There were a lot of rumours about why Sharmila decided to put up a party in Telangana, and there was even more discussion about this topic in Andhra Pradesh.
Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy had even announced back then that there would be no more YSRCP in Telangana, and that Sharmila’s party would be the YSRCP of Telangana. Following this announcement, almost everyone from Telangana YSRCP shifted to Sharmila’s party and greatly took part in its activities, despite the party not being launched officially yet.
On the other hand, Telangana YSRCP Leader Gattu Srikanth Reddy chose not to join Sharmila’s party, and instead decided to join BJP. Gattu even ignored YS Vijayalakshmi’s personal call to him, and the several attempts made by the close aides of Vijayalakshmi, to convince him to join Sharmila’s party.
Gattu is a very influential politician, and he has the strongest hold in the Huzur Nagar Constituency. He won the 2014 elections from that very constituency but did not take part in the 2018 elections, due to Jagan’s request. There was a lot of backlash on the YSRCP, saying that Gattu and Jagan did not take part in the 2018 elections in support of TRS, but the YSRCP denied all of these claims and said that there was no truth to it.
Whatever the reason may be, Gattu has now decided that he no more wants to be a part of YSRCP and that he wants to be a part of BJP. He has reportedly met with several BJP leaders as well.
