By now everyone with some political sense knows how the TDP was singularly responsible for the stunning victory of the TRS in 2018 elections. Everything looked gloomy for the TRS when the house was dissolved and elections were called for. In fact, the TRS went for early polls only because it realized that its popularity graph was falling very fast. But, the TDP jumped into the ring and allied with the Congress. This was enough for KCR to rake up Telangana sentiment.
He told the people that the TDP was making a backdoor entry by aligning with the Congress. The Telangana voter fell hook line sinker for this argument and voted him back to power with a resounding majority. This time again, it appears, the history is all set to repeat. The Congress seems to be making the same mistake all over again.
Revanth Reddy is from the TDP. He is also considered very close to Chandrababu Naidu. In fact, he was the only leader to be associated with Chandrababu Naidu in the infamous cash for vote scam. Even he left the TDP, Revanth had only praise and nothing but praise for Chandrababu Naidu. He never made a secret of his admiration for Chandrababu. Now that he is the PCC chief, there is great jubilation among the TDP cadres. In several places, TDP workers are planning to join the Congress in a big way.
All these will be exploited by the TRS, especially KCR, Harish and KTR. They have already begun screaming from housetops that the TDP was making a backdoor entry into Telangana politics through Revanth Reddy. There are indications that several of the former TDP would be given important positions in the Congress. Slowly but surely, they would be given key positions. The TRS feels that this will help them in raising up Telangana sentiment and help it in the elections. Already both Harish Rao and other leaders have begun talking about it.
