As this juncture reports are emerging that BJP high command is on the verge of declaring the state BJP President and they have reportedly ruled out MLC Somu Veerraju’s candidature for the top post as it may foil the relations between TDP and BJP. They are reportedly considering having a Rayalaseema leader for the post.
It is stated that Challapally Narasimha Reddy, the senior most leader of the party is likely to be nominated by the high command. Narasimha Reddy is considered non-controversial and is likely to strike balance between TDP and BJP.
Meanwhile it is also added that Somu Veerraju’s candidature is not in the beginning accepted by everyone in the party and also his appointment is likely to ensure that there is a vertical split in the party. So by considering all the factors, BJP high command is considering Narasimha Reddy as good option.
It is said that Somu Veerraju faction is still batting for his candidature putting pressure on the high command that it is the only way to strengthen to the party in AP.
