Looks like Daggubati Venkateswara Rao’s entry into YSR Congress Party has been attracting a lot of political bigwigs into the party. After industrialist and dormant TDP leader Jai Ramesh’s interest in joining YSRCP on recommendation of Daggubati Venkateswara Rao, BJP Member of Parliament Kavuri Sambasiva Rao joins this brigade.
Kavuri Sambasiva Rao who has been a die-hard Congress neta had switched to the Bharatiya Janata Party post bifurcation. Ever since, he has received tremendous respect within the party. However, it is believed that he has been planning to switch to YSR Congress, given the waning political strength of BJP along with a negative image of the party, after giving a raw deal to Andhra Pradesh.
In view of his close association with Daggubati Venkateswara Rao, Kavuri had apparently approached the former to explore opportunities in YSR Congress Party. Sources say that he has been trying this from the last 10 days and may meet YSR Congress Chief Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy in this regard. “He had met YS Jagan twice already. Soon, he will meet Jagan again and make a decision,” said a party leader.
According to party sources, Vijay Sai Reddy has been mediating the deal between Kavuri and Jagan. While socially, Kavuri’s entry may not be beneficial to YSR Congress but its aim of bringing all anti-Chandrababu people onto a single platform is bringing people into YSR Congress Party, say political observers.
