Probably, for the first time in history, the TDP, Congress and YSRCP have joined hands for a cause: defeating the TRS in the Palair by-poll.The election was necessitated following the death of sitting MLA of Congress Ramireddy Venkat Reddy. The Congress is fielding his wife Sucharitha Reddy in the elections.
The YSRCP and TDP have decided to stay away from the fray as a mark of respect and decided to support her.The TRS is fielding Tummala Nageswara Rao, a Kamma because there is a sizeable Kamma presence in the district. So, we are witnessing a rare spectacle in Palair of Congress, TDP and YSRCP cadre canvassing for the Congress candidate.
KTR is so confident of winning Palair that he has said he would resign if they lost. This is probably the best opportunity of the opposition parties to break the victory streak of TRS.Congress has won Palair seat 11 times so far and Ramireddy Venkat Reddy himself won it twice. He also had a lot of support among the tribals. The polling is scheduled for May 16.
