It was an established fact that the YSRCP president Jagan’s core strength lies in Seemandhra and this was the same calculation which pushed Congress high command to grant Telangana. Now Jagan is moving forward with his Samaikyandhra stand.
Due to this, though Jagan’s party was wiped off in Telangana, it is an expectation that he will get significant chunk of Lok Sabha seats in Seemandhra. And if that happens then Jagan will have the power to call the shots at a national level and also influence the new government in AP.
A survey published by a leading UK newspaper Daily Mail revealed that Jagan would have emerged stronger at a national level had AP been united and he would have got close to 30 seats but now he may not be getting more than 15-17 seats, which the paper says is again a liberal expectation.
This somehow proves that even Jagan’s fate is similar to that of Naidu, that is, in order to stay politically relevant then AP should stay united. Anyway a strong party in a big state is a plus. TDP knows this and now YSRCP should also know this!
