Chandrababu Naidu is away on a vacation in a foreign locale. But, the rumblings within the TDP over the stunning defeat are refusing to die. In fact, in the absence of Chandrababu Naidu, more and more leaders are coming out into the open criticising the way the party is being run. The latest to join the list of leaders who have opened up is former MLA Bonda Uma Maheswara Rao aka Bonda Uma.
The other day, addressing a party workers meeting Bonda Uma made sensational comments. He said the party is in dire straits because of sycophants who fed Chandrababu Naidu with wrong information. He said these self-serving sychophants ensured that the voice of the grassroots workers did not reach Chandrababu Naidu. They praised everything that Chandrababu did and did not inform him about the people's pulse. He said that several ministers had taken sycophancy to the most ridiculous levels. However, he did not name the ministers and the so-called sycophants.
He also made controversial comments on those who have joined the BJP recently. When asked about the Kapu community planning to join the BJP en masse, he said to which caste did those who have recently joined the BJP belonged to. By indirectly referring to the community to which most of those who joined the BJP belonged to, he sought to bring to the fore the caste conflicts within the TDP. Bonda Uma belongs to the Kapu community.
