Former Lok Sabha member Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy is a hot topic in Telangana politics now. Which party he will join is a debate that is going on now. Various theories are doing rounds on which party he would pick for his political journey. He is regarded as one of the big leaders in the Khammam region.
Keeping aside the debate, one thing that has caught everyone's attention is that the national parties are showing interest in making him a party member, which shows that his reputation is high and his presence is highly rated.
The grand old Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party might be opposition parties in Telangana. But the two parties are national parties and they want to invite him into their party. This shows how desperate the parties are. Usually, we don't see the national parties going after regional leaders.
Earlier a team of leaders from the Congress party met Punguleti Srinivasa Reddy and Jupally Krishna Rao to invite them. It is said that the team held the talks on the advice of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. The BJP also did the same and held talks.
A deletion of leaders from the Telangana wing of the Bharatiya Janata Party under the leadership of Huzurabad MLA Etela Rajender. He was made the chairman of the 'Joining & Coordination Committee' earlier and the body focuses on inviting leaders from the other parties. So the BJP leaders including Etela Rajender, and Raghunandan Rao met the two leaders.
As these factors resulted in a debate that the national parties increased the popularity of the former MP. Moreover Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy is a big leader in the Khammam region and he can help the party win a bunch of seats. This is a big reason behind the parties trying their best to make him join the party.
On the other hand, the former Lok Sabha member is not happy with Bharat Rashtra Samithi and earlier said that he will not make the party win even one seat from the region. If he can additional support from the party then nothing can stop him. Let us wait and see.
