Rayalaseema Gives A Big Shock To YCP!

The Rayalaseema region stood in support of YS Jagan Mohan Reddy for two terms with his aim of becoming the Chief Minister. However, the trend has changed in 2024 as the YCP might collapse in the region this time.

In the 2019 elections, YCP won all the seats barring three among the 52 seats in the four districts. But the tables were turned down this time. Probably for the first time in the last 25 years, the TDP alliance is leading in over 45 seats there and it might win those seats.

In Kadapa, Jagan's native district YCP won all ten seats in 2019, But this time the party is struggling in as many as six seats. It hints at how people from the Kadapa district also did not trust the party.

YCP which earlier swept the Kurnool region is struggling there. There are cracks in YCP’s fortress in the Chittoor district. TDP has a favorable condition in the Anantapur district.

Looking at the picture many doubt how the YCP can see such a sad situation in Rayalaseema. People from Rayalaseema elected Jagan with a massive majority of five and a half lakh from the Kadapa seat after he floated the YCP. They stood in support of YCP in 2014 as well and YCP won the majority of seats out of its 67 seats. But this time it looks like they are not with the YCP.

Many say that Jagan who impressed the region when he was in the opposition failed the same after coming to power. It looks like the picture changed in Rayalaseema politics after a decade. Observers say that people might be unhappy with a lack of development.

They might have felt that the Rayalaseema which gave the good number of seats and votes to Jagan was ignored in the last five years. Their anger turned into a massive force that helped the alliance. Many say that if the own district people ignored the YCP then the future of the party will be in a big question. Let us wait and see.
