Many in the TDP are enjoying and are feeling happy about the discomfiture of Kilaru Rajesh. They are enjoying IT raids on Kilaru's offices and residences for the past four days. Within the TDP, there was deep resentment over the rise of Kilaru Rajesh and the overt importance given to him by both Chandrababu and Lokesh.
Kilaru Rajesh grew closer to Lokesh after his long-time friend Abheeshta left him. Rajesh has been made director of Nirvana Holdings, a family concern of Chandrababu. Chandrababu's wife Bhuvaneswari, daughter-in-law Brahmani were also directors in the firm. Rajesh is also on the board of Heritage Finlease Limited and Aswas Healthcare Pvt Ltd. Both these companies reportedly belong to Chandrababu Naidu. Rajesh is being described by the TDP leaders as a power centre and they add that he had managed the TDP election war rooms in 2014 and 2019.
Several TDP leaders, including several seniors were resentful of his growing clout within the party and his influence on both Chandrababu and Lokesh. In fact, he is known as the alter ego of Lokesh in the TDP circles. Several seniors were unhappy that he was deciding on most things. Now that he is being raided by the IT, the TDP leaders are feeling very happy over his problems.
