Ganta disobeys Chandrababus diktats, what next?
X
It is now clear that TDP’s north Vizag MLA and former minister Ganta Srinivasa Rao is in no mood to listen to Chandrababu Naidu. He has sent clear indications that he would not care for the diktats of the Yellow boss.

Not only did he not attend the meeting called by Chandrababu, he also sent a message saying he would meet him at his convenience.

Ganta has been a major headache for the TDP after the 2019 election results were out. Soon after the TDP lost power, Ganta lost interest in the party affairs.

He almost fell silent, rarely appearing in party programmes. He did not call on Chandrababu, when the latter came on a visit to Vizag. Even when Chandrababu’s wife Bhuvaneswari was insulted in the assembly, Ganta did not stir out.

At the same time, he made several attempts to join either the YSRCP or the BJP. Then, he sent his resignation as an MLA opposing the proposed privatization of the Vizag Steel Plant.

But, he never insisted on his resignation being accepted by the Speaker. Of late, Ganta is actively involved in Kapu politics and attended several meetings in Hyderabad and other places.

But, now the big question is will Chandrababu appoint someone else as the incharge for the party for North Vizag assembly constituency or will he keep the decision in abeyance for some more time. The delay might weaken the TDP further. But, can Chandrababu ignore Ganta Srinivasa Rao?
