Telugu Thammulu, this is how the cadre and leaders of TDP are referred to by media and everyone in Telugu states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
It is a known fact that AP CM Chandrababu Naidu has been involved in a war of words with TS CM KCR and both are at loggerheads but suddenly after the ice breaking meet at Raj Bhavan, both have halted direct accusations and attacks.
Now while Babu is refraining from attacking KCR in public, it is looking as if CBN has outsourced it completely to the TDP leadership in Telangana state, also called TDP Telangana Thammulu or brothers.
Now while Naidu is behaving like a statesman predictably to get things done in Hyderabad, his leaders have focused more attacks on KCR. So two purposes are solved for CBN now, being diplomatic outwards and delivering political punch from inside.
