There seems to be no end to the ‘Operation Akarsh’ mission launched by Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and his Telangana counterpart K Chandrasekhar Rao to lure the Opposition party MLAs into the Telugu Desam Party and the Telangana Rashtra Samithi respectively.
On Wednesday, Congress MLA from Makthal in Mahbubnagar district Chittem Ram Mohan Reddy met KCR at the latter’s camp office in Begumpet and was immediately admitted into the Telangana Rashtra Samithi.
Reddy, who happens to be brother of Gadwal MLA and former minister D K Aruna, has been a strong Congress loyalist right from the beginning, but for obvious reasons, he chose to defect to the TRS.
Needless to say, he claimed that he had joined the TRS as he was very much impressed with the policies and programmes of KCR.
In Andhra Pradesh, there are reports that YSR Congress party MLA from Giddalur in Prakasam district Ashok Reddy and another MLA from Bobbili Sujaya Venkata Krishna Ranga Rao are getting ready to take a plunge into the TDP.
Ashok Reddy is learnt to have already met Chandrababu Naidu, while Sujaya Ranga Rao might meet the TDP chief in a day or two. However, the local TDP leaders are said to be strongly opposing the entry of both the leaders into the party, but TDP general secretary Lokesh is pacifying them.
