Is a media baron ruining Chandrababu Naidu? We all know that a tried and trusted media baron has been helping the TDP in moulding public opinion and guiding the leaders. This media baron was also termed Rajaguruvu for his ability to gude Chandrababu Naidu. He used to create a favourable atmosphere for the TDP just ahead of elections and help the party win. He could do all these even while appearing to be neutral. His media houses too had managed to appear impartial though they fully backed the TDP.
But, of late, Chandrababu Naidu appears to have a new Rajagururu. He too is a media baron and owns a TV channel and a newspaper. But, ever since this man got close to the powers in AP, his brash style is rubbing the people the wrong way. He is very abrasive and rash and his style of media coverage is very 'in-the-face.' He lacks the finesse of the Rajaguruvu. He is more like the Shakuni of Mahabharata. Those in the know say it was on his advice that Chandrababu had parted company with the BJP. Though a section of the TDP believed that it should stay with the BJP, this media baron drilled into Chandrababu's ears and made him come out of the alliance. Sources also say that the move to bring No Confidence Motion too is his idea. Now that all his ideas have failed miserably, will Chandrababu realize that he is banking on the wrong guru? Let's wait and see!!
