Ever since TDP AP unit president Atchen Naidu gave his frank opinion about Lokesh and his leadership qualities, things are not easy in the TDP. A cold war of sorts is brewing in the party. Highly placed sources say that despite the current silence, Lokesh might strike anytime at Atchen Naidu.
Atchen Naidu has questioned the leadership abilities of Lokesh and said that the party is in totters because of him. This was said in a private conversation with a TDP supporter. Ever since this video went viral, Lokesh is said to be angry. But, he has not immediately shown his anger. Instead, he tried to present a picture of unity in the party by organizing joint programmes. Atchen too was quite diplomatic. But, insiders say that Lokesh will attack Atchen sooner than later. Lokesh is said to be planning to make South Coastal Andhra leader Beeda Ravichandra president of AP TDP in place of Atchen Naidu. He is said to have already planned his moves.
Meanwhile, Atchen Naidu is said to be aware of these moves and he is not going to take things lying down. If Lokesh tries to replace him, Atchen could very well strike back. Atchen has strong support base in Srikakulam and his attack could be quite fierce. So, expect lot of fireworks in the TDP in the days to come.
