Lok Sabha member from Kurnool Butta Renuka, who has been playing hide and seek about her political plans, finally revealed that she would contest on Telugu Desam Party ticket from Kurnool in 2019 general elections.She told media that there was no truth in the reports that she would contest the assembly elections in 2019 from Yemmiganur assembly constituency.
“I will contest only Lok Sabha elections and from Kurnool again. This time, I would contest on TDP ticket,” Renuka said.However, the local TDP leaders are yet to accept her as the party leader, as she had never been active in the party activities.Though most of her followers have joined the TDP, she has been maintaining distance from the TDP, less she would face the disqualification threat.
As a result, the TDP leaders also have been maintaining distance from her. On Saturday, they have not attended the official programme organised by the MP.She was inaugurating the water treatment plant at Yemmiganur constituency using the MP Local Area Development funds, but the local TDP leaders did not attend the programme.
Till recently, there were reports that Renuka might even join the the Bharatiya Janata Party before the next elections.She did not join the protests of the TDP leaders in the Parliament during the recent budget session on special category status demand. She did not even utter a word in favour of special category status.
And she even met Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with her family and spent some time with him. She told the media then that she had not yet decided from which party she would contest the next elections.“I will take a call depending on the political situation prevailing then,” she said.
