Bandi Vs Kishan Reddy: Who Has a Big Image?

BJP is gearing up to face the Telangana Assembly elections. The party had upped the game in the preparations. The party has already announced a list of 40 Star campaigners and planned the meetings. However, BRS has an icon in the form of KCR. Congress has Revanth Reddy. They have a good following in people. When Revanth filed his nomination people gathered in big numbers. There is no need to mention about KCR.

What about BJP? Does party chief Gangapuram Kishan Reddy have a similar following? Does he have an image as a firebrand leader? Can he gather one lakh people? Well, the answer to this is no. Now BJP needs an icon who can attract mass voters with his image. How all these are possible? As Bandi Sanjay was the chief in the past, the BJP posed a tough fight in GHMC, Munugode, Dubbaka, Huzurabad, and Nagarjuna Sagar elections.

This is said to have made the leadership understand the importance of Bandi. BJP leaders decided to use Bandi's image directly and indirectly. BJP has no tradition of announcing the CM candidate in prior. Unusual to what followed, the CM face was announced before the Gujarat polls. Coming to Telangana, Bandi Sanjay earned the image of a firebrand leader. He waged a big war. He was arrested for this as well.

Though this was not announced publicly, the BJP was forced to translate the sympathy into a vote bank. Party sources say that the party is talking about BC CM and leaking Bandi Sanjay's name. No one is talking about this openly. It is said that BJP bigwigs also know that Bandi Sanjay has more image than Kishan Reddy. Now the observers say that BJP is depending on Bandi's image.
