KCR-KTR are aiming at a clean sweep of Telangana and want to win 16 seats for themselves and the remaining one for their all-weather friend MIM. They have also coined rhythmically alliterative "Saaru Kaau Padaharu" slogan to woo the voters. The utter flop of the recent meet at LB Stadium has become a wakeup call for the TRS. Now, the TRS boss is monitoring every move and every aspect of the campaign closely to ensure that there are no gaffes and goof-ups.
KCR has also been going round the town to tell the people that he doesn't have just 16, but has more. He is claiming support from Navin Patnaik, Mamta Banerjee, Akhilesh Yadav and Mayawati. He says they are all behind him. But, all these leaders are now visited Andhra Pradesh, but not Telangana. If he is the king maker that he claims to be, why have Mamta and Arvind Kejriwal did not visit Telangana to support him. Instead, they went to AP to campaign for Chandrababu.
Interestingly, KCR was able to get national leaders, including Sharad Yadav, Akhilesh, Mayawati and others during the Telangana agitation. So, why is he unable to get them on board now? Why is no national leader backing him? Mayawati has a pact with Jana Sena and she and Mamtha have been criticising KCR in the runup to the poll campaign. So, can KCR really play a king-maker at the centre, even if he wins 16 seats.
