Incidentally, two candidates, Vangaveeti Radha, who is represented by the NDA alliance and AB Venkateshwar Rao, who is contesting the election as an independent candidate happened to come face-to-face.
This interaction happened when Venkateswara Rao and Radha were campaigning on the streets of Vijayawada when they happened to come face-to-face with each other.
This was something very interesting and appreciable happened as the two of them spotted each other and went on to hug each other. Radha got down from his campaign vehicle to greet and interact with Venkateswara Rao as the two of them happened to have a hurtful conversation.
While there is a lot of emphasis that is being placed on the electoral battle in Vijayawada, it is good to see the two candidates who Are in the contest sharing such a close rapport off screen.
It is expected that Radha could significantly secure the Vijayawada mayor position, considering the strength of the NDA alliance locally and also across Andhra Pradesh. But Venkateshwara Rao has also been fighting his own battle in Vijayawada as he is looking to bring enlightenment amongst the public.
At a time when we have been witnessing Mysore violence breaking out in several parts of Andhra Pradesh, it is very pleasant and surprising to see two contestants sharing mutual respect for each other like in the video above.
