Thanneeru… The Trouble Shooter.

Harish Rao has long been tagged as the “Trouble Shooter” of BRS, ever since the party’s inception (formerly TRS). Whenever KCR faced crisis within the party, Harish’s leadership skills effectively resolved the turmoil, revitalizing the party. His strategic acumen was also evident in Revanth Reddy’s defeat in Kodangal during the 2018 elections. However, after returning to power for the second term, KCR began sidelining Harish. He was initially excluded from the Cabinet, and even KTR was kept away briefly to avoid backlash. Later, KTR was appointed as the party’s Working President, and both were eventually inducted into the Cabinet. But Harish’s influence was systematically diluted, reducing his prominence in the party. 

Harish was confined to Siddipet and Hyderabad, barred from campaigning elsewhere, and subjected to intense pressure. Known for his patience, Harish endured this silently. By the time of BRS’s Silver Jubilee celebrations, tensions peaked. KCR and KTR openly undermined Harish’s role. Initially announced as the in-charge for the Warangal public meeting, the venue was abruptly shifted to Medchal, where KTR took center stage, sidelining Harish. Later, the event was moved back to Warangal, but Harish’s presence was erased, with the stage dominated by KCR and KTR. By April 27, the Silver Jubilee event felt more like a platform to hand over party responsibilities to KTR. 

Harish’s loyalists, who shared struggles with him, grew anxious about his future. Many who saw him as a future CM began exploring alternatives. Speculations arose… some suggested he join BJP, others urged him to start his own party. Yet, Harish remained silent, weathering the storm with his trademark patience. 

Meanwhile, a new crisis emerged with KCR’s daughter, MLC Kavitha Kalvakuntla. Her remarks—indirectly criticizing KCR’s governance, questioning per capita income during KCR regime and hinting at “unfinished social justice goals” “By stating, ‘It remains unfulfilled even now…’, Kavitha has indirectly levied criticism squarely at KCR.” However, KTR has been boasting that the per capita income growth was robust during KCR’s tenure. This sparked fresh debates. Rumors swirled about her writing a letter expressing dissent and even floating a new party. These developments deepened suspicions of internal strife in BRS. 

In a dramatic turn, Harish re-emerged as the “Trouble Shooter.” KTR personally visited Harish’s home twice for discussions, signaling a truce. This move, amid the Kavitha controversy, underscored Harish’s indispensability. Party circles buzzed with the phrase, *”What a change in such a short time!”* 

Conclusion: BRS politics remains incomplete without Harish Rao. His resurgence proves that despite attempts to sideline him, his role as the crisis manager is irreplaceable. The recent twists highlight one truth: Harish’s absence reduces BRS’s political heft to zero.

The Twist in the President Race

Just as Etela Rajender was hoping to take charge of the Telangana BJP any day now, a notice from the Kaleshwaram Commission seems to have thrown a wrench into his plans. At a time when he was expecting an appointment letter from the BJP high command confirming his role as the state president, receiving a summons from the Commission instead has clearly come as an unwelcome development. For Etela, who was confident that he had Amit Shah’s blessings and believed the state presidency was his for the taking, this new twist has created fresh complications.

In light of these developments, the big questions are: Will the BJP go ahead with the state president appointment? And if they do, will it still go to Etela? Or will the party now say, “Sorry, boss”?

Technically, Etela could have turned the notice from the Kaleshwaram Commission into an advantage. He could have used it as ammunition against KCR, who once targeted him over assigned lands. But instead, Etela is directing his attacks at Chief Minister Revanth Reddy. While saying that he will cooperate with the Commission, he is also lashing out at Revanth, accusing him of committing the same mistakes KCR did — particularly with regard to the Devarayamjal land issue.

Etela has stated that he is not afraid of Revanth Reddy’s threats and warned the CM to remember that the BJP is in power at the Centre. On one hand, Etela claims he’s unshaken by intimidation — on the other hand, he seems to be issuing veiled threats of his own, reminding Revanth of the BJP’s central authority.

With this Commission notice, Etela is now facing two types of troubles. First, there’s concern that the inquiry might cast a shadow over his long-anticipated appointment as BJP state president. Second, he’s caught in a dilemma over what to say in front of the Commission. If he admits that KCR committed wrongdoings, it implicates him as well, since he was part of that Cabinet. But if he defends KCR, critics will accuse him of still standing by his former boss even after joining the BJP. Thus, Etela finds himself stuck between a rock and a hard place. Perhaps that’s why he’s now launching attacks on Revanth Reddy — possibly as a strategy to shift focus or reclaim some political ground amid the pressure from the Commission.

June5-Big day

Former Chief Minister Kalvakuntla Chandrashekar Rao, who once claimed that the Kaleshwaram project was built with every drop of his blood, is now being haunted by the very same Kaleshwaram — like a serpent turning on its master. The tenure of the P.C. Ghose Commission has ended. Reports suggest that the Commission’s findings are ready and may be submitted to the government any day now. But suddenly, an unexpected twist: the Irrigation Department’s Principal Secretary, Rahul Bojja, issued orders extending the Commission’s term by another two months.

Just when BRS cadre thought the storm had passed, this move jolted them once again. Criticism began pouring in, with some calling it not a “Kaleshwaram Commission” but a “Congress Commission.” While political accusations fly, the burning questions remain — will KCR appear before the Commission? Will he seek relief from the courts, as he did in the power sector commission case? What revelations will emerge from the Kaleshwaram inquiry? What will the Commission’s report state? What action will the government take based on it? And ultimately, will the allegations of corruption surrounding Kaleshwaram reach KCR?

When he was in the Opposition, Revanth Reddy was relentlessly pursued by the KCR family. No one expects Revanth to let them off the hook so easily now. However, there’s a stark contrast between the two leaders. KCR held no restraint when targeting his opponents. He wouldn’t hesitate to jail them under any pretext, breaking into their homes if needed and showing no mercy. Revanth Reddy, however, is taking a different path. He wants KCR and his associates to face legal consequences — but through lawful and procedural means. He’s cautious to ensure the public doesn’t perceive any personal vendetta.

That’s why, so far, there haven’t been aggressive actions in cases like the phone tapping scandal, the E-formula car race, or the electricity commission inquiry. Government insiders say Revanth wants airtight evidence and irrefutable proof before proceeding to the final stage in any case. His aim is to legally pin down the accused without leaving any loopholes.

Take the Kaleshwaram case for instance — the P.C. Ghose Commission has had its term extended five or six times already. Several engineers and top officials were called in repeatedly. Affidavits were collected from some of them. The ACB raided former ENC Hariram and unearthed details of his disproportionate assets. Simultaneously, vigilance inquiries are ongoing. Along with the Commission probe and the Vigilance investigation, there is also a report from the National Dam Safety Authority. All this points to the government’s firm determination to gather conclusive evidence and establish guilt against the previous regime.

Hence, just when everyone assumed the Commission would conclude without directly questioning KCR and his team, the government triggered fresh panic in the BRS cadre by extending the Commission’s term again by two months.

This signals a new phase in the inquiry — what was until now an administrative-level investigation is now moving towards direct political accountability. The Commission, which had until now only questioned officers and water experts, is now summoning political leaders — starting with KCR on June 5. Will he appear? Or will he seek legal relief to avoid it? If he does appear, what will he say in front of the Commission?

If KCR appears on June 5 and Harish Rao follows on June 6, it would signal a major turning point in the inquiry. However, if KCR skips the summons and only Harish Rao shows up, the political consequences could be significant. Such a scenario could trigger talk that while Harish is trying to prove his integrity, KCR is attempting to dodge responsibility.

Adding more intrigue, KCR’s former close aide Etela Rajender is also scheduled to appear before the Commission on June 9. What he says could be even more sensational. KCR had targeted Etela harshly over endowment and assigned lands, subjecting him to financial and psychological distress. Will Etela spill the beans before the Commission? Or will he tread carefully and align with the BRS narrative out of loyalty to his former boss?

That’s now the hot topic across Telangana’s political circles.

Now in AP, Nimmala vs. Narayana..Andhra Pradesh’s lifeblood and growth engine projects in the hands of two ministers..Currently, Nimmala is ahead in the race..

Amaravati
AP means Andhra Pradesh. However, after the division.. AP got another name.. Amaravati and Polavaram. These two are key projects for the development of AP.. for the all-round development of all sections. It has been seen that such key projects have not progressed much in the last five years. The previous government, chanting the mantra of decentralization of development and saying that there is no need for the construction of a capital.. that the state can be led on the path of development in all sectors through three capitals.. has stalled the Amaravati project. The construction of the Polavaram project, which is the lifeline of another state, took only a very limited step during the previous government. Only 3-4 percent of the work in the construction of the Polavaram project was done during Jagan’s tenure. Furthermore, the Jagan government did not implement the R&R package for the displaced as promised. As if this was not enough.. the diaphragm wall was damaged due to the attitude of the previous government leaders.. officials.. Now the situation is that a new diaphragm wall needs to be constructed. This is Amaravati. The situation regarding the Polavaram projects was the same before the coalition came to power.

However, the TDP-Janasena-BJP alliance achieved a stunning victory in the 2024 elections. This has led to a movement in the construction of Amaravati and Polavaram projects. In this context, an interesting discussion is going on in the AP administration and political circles. It is said that a running race is now taking place between the ministers related to the Amaravati and Polavaram projects. Narayana and Nimmala are the ministers for both of these, which are the most important projects for the state. Who will complete the projects under their respective jurisdictions first. Which minister will bring a shape to these projects quickly. Who will dedicate these projects like growth engine and lifeline to the nation as soon as possible has now become a hot discussion. Nimmala is already in the front row in this running race. The construction work of the Polavaram project has already started. The work is also progressing rapidly. Minister Nimmala Ramanaidu confidently says that Polavaram will be completed by 2027. But the Amaravati project under Minister Narayana’s purview has not yet been fully launched. Although the Center has announced that it is ready to provide financial support for the construction of the capital, there is a lot of discussion that Minister Narayana has failed to activate it immediately. There is a lot of discussion that Minister Narayana has failed miserably in lobbying bankers. Another argument is that the re-launch of the Amaravati project has been delayed due to Narayana’s pressure to cooperate with some contractors.

Whatever the case may be, CRDA sources say that Amaravati has a chance of getting the project completed sooner than the Polavaram project. Even if the re-launch work is delayed, the Narayana team is confident that they will be the latest to start. Since Prime Minister Narendra Modi has started the re-launch work, the funds and permissions for the Polavaram project are purely a matter for our country, but since Amaravati is linked to international organizations, it is said that it started a little late.

In this way, no matter who argues, the two ministers have shouldered very important projects. They want to get the work done, considering this not as a political matter but as a matter related to the state and its development. Experts also warn that if there is any negligence or difference in this, the people will never forgive those ministers.

Vijaya Sai’s blow.. YCP’s fault..

Will the protector be the cause of punishment..?
Will Vijaya Sai reveal the secrets of the inner sanctum..?
Will Vijaya Sai Reddy become an approver in Jagan’s disproportionate assets case..?
Will Vijaya Sai provide a list of the irregularities committed by Jagan as YS Kumar along with evidence..?
An interesting discussion in AP politics.

Amaravati
It is said that the secret of the house is a curse to Lanka. Is the same going to happen in the case of YSRCP now..? Vijayasai Reddy, who knows the secret of the house, has now fallen out with YSRCP chief Jagan Mohan Reddy. Although the reasons for that are being blamed on the coterie.. there is already a discussion in AP political circles that Vijayasai’s anger is directly directed at his former boss Jagan Mohan Reddy. As far as YSRCP.. or the YS family is concerned, Vijaya Sai Reddy is not some ordinary auditor. He is like a Vibhishan who knows all the secrets of the inner sanctum.

He is an inch-to-inch acquaintance of the assets of three generations of the YS family, namely YS Raja Reddy, YS Rajasekhar Reddy, and YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. If everything goes smoothly, the YS family, especially Jagan Mohan Reddy, will not have any problems due to Vijayasai Reddy. But in Jagan Mohan Reddy’s history, there are many cases related to economic crimes, investigation agencies like CBI and ED, FIRs, charge sheets, and cases like jails and bails. There is no doubt that Vijaya Sai Reddy knows more about every aspect of this than Jagan. Moreover, if Jagan Mohan Reddy goes to jail, Vijaya Sai will be right behind him. In a way, Jagan-Vijaya Sai Reddy have a milk-water relationship in the illegal assets case, as well as a light-dark relationship.

Such Vijayasai Reddy.. now Jagan Mohan Reddy has been divided. He resigned from the Rajya Sabha. He said goodbye to the party. It is reported that he has already explained many of the shady dealings that took place in the liquor scam to the SIT team.. to government officials. If all this is a tall order.. the investigation of the CBI-ED cases against Jagan Mohan Reddy is actually progressing at a snail’s pace. They have been lying idle for a long time. In these circumstances.. with the changed developments, there are very clear indications that all the old cases against Jagan Mohan Reddy will be queued up again and brought before the court. But now the real discussion is.. whether Vijayasai Reddy will reveal the secret related to Jagan in the CBI and ED cases is currently being discussed a lot in AP politics. There is also a lot of discussion about whether Vijayasai Reddy will become an approver in those cases. Because.. they say the reason is that Vijayasai Reddy is very serious about Jagan.. about the coterie around Jagan. Vijayasai Reddy seems to think that it is right to give priority to others besides Jagan, even if he does everything himself, and even goes to jail. With this, the discussion is going on in full swing that an agreement has already been reached with TDP leaders to reveal as many secrets of the inner sanctum as possible.

If this happens, not only will politics in AP take many turns in the future, but the debate going on in AP is very clear that the political landscape of AP will change.

Sharmila finally feels the movement..

Sharmila, who organized a program to highlight the presence of the Congress party in AP..
Sharmila, who is unable to use YS Charmisha.
There is a wide discussion in the Congress party about who will put the lost Sharmila on the right path.

Amaravati
The Congress party died in AP politics almost ten years ago. The sin of division is haunting that party. The people of Andhra Pradesh are still unable to forgive the Congress party. They are unable to forget the mistake that the party made. Accordingly, with the emergence of the YSRCP as a strong regional party, the Congress is having to struggle to assert its presence. As part of its efforts to defeat the Congress party in the state of Andhra Pradesh, the Congress party high command considered YS’ daughter Sharmila as a part of the efforts to defeat the Congress party and make it ascend to the top. She was appointed as the PCC president.

The Congress leadership hoped that with the arrival of Sharmila, the Congress party would win at least one or two seats in the 2024 elections. But that did not come true. The YSRCP registered a huge defeat in the last elections. It was limited to only 11 seats. Sharmila is trying to take some of the credit for the YSRCP’s defeat at this level, saying that her campaign was also important. However, in the early days of the 2024 elections, it was thought that there would be a large-scale migration from the YSRCP, which suffered a crushing defeat in the 2024 elections. In that order, migration from the YSRCP to the Congress party would also come. Since Sharmila is the daughter of YS. Since YS Jagan has become an absolute flop. Everyone expected that the YSRCP leaders.. ranks would look towards their daughter.

However, YS Sharmila has turned those expectations upside down. Sharmila, who made a little fuss during the election campaign, has not been able to influence AP politics since then. Even before the elections, some people may have joined the YSRCP, but after the elections, there have been no major additions to the Congress party from the YSRCP. Isn’t it true that those who are tired of Sharmila’s behavior are leaving the party. Some others are staying in the party and are circulating as a dissenting group. Former PCC chief Shailajanadh is the most prominent among those who have left the Congress party. If the leaders are gone, they are gone. At least they can organize programs with the remaining few. But there are criticisms that Sharmila is playing around to do that too.

At this juncture, Sharmila’s undertaking of a program on the occasion of Narendra Modi’s visit to Amaravati, which was blocked by the government and police, has given up hope in the old Congress ranks. This small effort, which has made the Congress party assert its presence in AP after a long time, is making the rest of the cadre happy. Will such programs continue in the future? Or will they be thwarted again? There is a doubt in the Congress cadre.

BJP gave a big shock to Babu.. and Pawan..

BJP unexpectedly nominated Pak Satyanarayana to Rajya Sabha..
BJP has become the high command for Chandrababu and Pawan Kalyan.

An alliance has been formed in AP. The candidates of the three parties in the alliance have achieved a remarkable victory in the elections. Everyone knows the extent of the role of each party in this. There is nothing new to say in this. But it can be said for sure that the BJP in power at the Center is the one that is influencing the alliance in AP the most politically. If MLC seats or MP seats are vacant in AP, the issue of who should be replaced there is decided by the BJP. If it is a problem for the other two parties in the alliance in BJP, then TDP or Jana Sena will have to sit in silence. Yes, they will have to sit in silence. A similar discussion is now taking place in AP politics after seeing the candidature finalized by BJP in Rajya Sabha. The BJP has finalized the name of senior BJP leader Paka Satyanarayana in an unexpected way. No one expected that this name would be finalized.

Okay, who will finalize the party candidate? It is natural to discuss what will be the problem for the other parties in the alliance. But looking at the past history and the recent developments regarding the finalization of the Rajya Sabha seat, one can understand how much it is troubling the leaderships of the TDP and Jana Sena parties in the BJP alliance. Who was this seat intended for? It is interesting to see where it ended up. There was a discussion that the Rajya Sabha seat vacated by Vijayasai Reddy’s resignation would be allotted to Vijayasai Reddy. After that, it was said that it would not be allotted to Vijayasai Reddy but to other people.

Various names were heard. As part of them, there was a campaign that former Tamil Nadu BJP chief Annamalai would be allotted the seat. There was also a very wide discussion that another name, Mandakrishna Madiga, would go to the Rajya Sabha. Although there was a discussion that those who did not want to give the Rajya Sabha ticket to Vijayasai Reddy brought this kind of argument to the screen.. Many people thought that the Rajya Sabha seat would go to one of Vijayasai Reddy.. or Annamalai or Mandakrishna Madiga. But, turning everyone’s expectations upside down.. the BJP finalized the seat for senior leader Paka Satyanarayana.

There is already a discussion going on that this is a very embarrassing issue for TDP-Jana Sena. If the name of Paka Satyanarayana is an issue that no one expected.. Paka Satyanarayana’s past history also seems to be the main reason for this. Paka Satyanarayana continues to be a senior leader of the party.. Everyone respects him. But he also has another impression. That is.. Paka Satyanarayana is an opponent of Chandrababu.. and a close friend of Somu Veerraju. Now, with the finalization of Paka’s candidacy, a similar discussion is going on. Since the alliance was formed, the BJP has only fulfilled its promise.. There is a discussion that it has not paid any attention to the words of its allies. It is because of BJP that Jana Sena has reduced some assembly seats.. and Lok Sabha seats. And the TDP has also compromised to a large extent. The BJP has offered to give a Narasapuram ticket to Raghu Ramakrishnam Raju in the elections. With this, the TDP has come into a situation where it is not possible to include Raghu Ramakrishnam Raju in the party under the right circumstances and not give him a ticket. While doing all this, there is a lot of talk in political circles that the BJP is just doing its own thing and leaving.

There is a hot discussion in AP political circles about BJP giving posts to opponents of Chandrababu. The Narasapuram ticket was allotted to Srinivasa Varma, not Raghu Ramakrishnam Raju. Not stopping there, Saduru Varma was allotted a Union Minister post. Similarly, Somu Veerraju, who played a bad game with Chandrababu, was allotted an MLC ticket. Now, Somu’s close friend, Paka Satyanarayana, who has been branded as an opponent of Chandrababu, has been allotted a ticket. There is no doubt that this will naturally put the TDP in trouble. It is a hot discussion in political circles. Even though they are giving posts to people they do not like, the TDP-Jana Sena parties are in a situation where they cannot say no to them. There is a discussion going on that if it is not BJP.. what difference does it make.. why the fight? Both Chandrababu.. and Pawan Kalyan are not going to compromise on the BJP issue. In a way.. now it is being heard in political circles that the BJP is the high command for Chandrababu and Pawan Kalyan.

Is Pawan able to show influence?

Is Pawan working at a level that can get the party on track..?
To what extent is Pawan succeeding in his efforts to instill enthusiasm in the cadre..?

It took Pawan Kalyan ten years to bring the party he founded to power. That too was possible only if he contested together with Telugu Desam and BJP. Pawan Kalyan, who founded the party before the 2014 elections, did not contest in that election. Then he contested in the 2019 elections, but did not get the right votes. He did not get the seats either. Pawan Kalyan himself contested in two places, but lost in both places. After that, an alliance was formed, partly with Pawan Kalyan’s initiative, partly with compromise. He contested in 21 seats and won in all 21 seats. This is a sensation in a way. He won 21 seats in the 2024 elections. Apart from himself, two others were given ministerial posts. So far, both have been given MLC posts. And in nominated posts, they continue to give positions to key Jana Sena leaders and those who should be given priority. All this is good. But to what extent is Pawan Kalyan thinking about the strength of the party… about strengthening the party organizationally… are there any plans related to that… the answer is no.

TDP is an institutionally strong party. After YSRCP came to power, people started working for the party at the village level. As for BJP, that party also has an institutional network. However, when it comes to Jana Sena, there is a discussion that Jana Sena does not have a large network at the level of the main parties. Already, in many villages, leaders from the Kapu community are the caretaker address of the party. Pawan Kalyan himself knows that building a party based on a caste is a very difficult task. Why is the party

It does not seem to be focusing on strengthening. Once a system is established, it is enough.. then that system will lead the party forward. But so far, there is criticism that neither the top leaders of Jana Sena.. nor the party chief Pawan Kalyan is focusing on strengthening the party across the state. They say that it is not enough to simply give nominated positions to some of the key leaders in the party.. If the Jana Sena party is to get a complete political look, it needs to act in a more planned manner.

Even now, Jana Sena is seen as a party of only the united Godavari districts. Jana Sena is unable to come forward beyond the Godavari banks. Although the Jana Sena party got one seat each in the united Srikakulam, Chittoor, Kadapa and Krishna districts in the last elections. At that time, Jana Sena candidates won because of the opposition to the YSRCP. Their own charisma.. did not win on the party flavor. That is, Pawan Kalyan has to take many steps to further strengthen the party in the districts of Uttarandhra and Rayalaseema. However, by repeatedly mentioning the problems in the tribal areas.. by frequently visiting the respective constituencies, Pawan Kalyan is trying to increase his hold in the ST constituencies.. It is impossible to say to what extent this will work out by the time of the elections. Therefore, the party should have a man at the village level.. There needs to be at least ten people in every hamlet who carry the party flag. Only then can the party be strengthened at the village level. But at present, it does not appear that Jana Sena is taking any steps in that direction.

If the party leaders including Pawan Kalyan do not focus on issues like celebrating the party’s foundation day every year or holding plenaries, strengthening the party at the field level, and strengthening it organizationally, then even if there is a 100 percent strike rate, there will be a 200 percent strike.

They say that even if the rate increases, it will not stand. And at present, it does not seem like Jana Sena is taking steps in this direction. In order to avoid being ridiculed for winning in the wind.. so that the cheque does not get blown away by the strong winds.. that is, no matter how many ups and downs the party faces, it is necessary to strengthen it to a level that political pundits believe.

Too bad Purandeswari..

NTR’s daughter to be AP BJP president if she is elected..
Purandeswari’s importance in the high command has decreased..
Purandeswari’s opponents have a big seat in the party..

The cold war in AP BJP is taking interesting turns. Purandeswari, who is the chief of Kamalam Party in AP, is facing a major domestic conflict. For Dagguppati Purandeswari, who is keeping her house in order, leading the party she is the president has become a major problem. She could not provide a place to all the candidates she wanted before the elections. After that, the BJP high command is giving a big seat to Purandeswari’s opponents in the party in nominated positions. Those who are watching all this are of the opinion that Purandeswari’s influence in the BJP leadership is limited.

Purandeswari Vishwa tried her best to give the Narasapuram MP ticket to Raghu Ramakrishnam Raju. But her dice did not roll.. Srinivasa Varma was allotted the ticket in his place. After that, even though everyone thought that Purandeswari would get a place in the cabinet.. the party high command pushed her aside and gave a place in the cabinet to Srinivasa Varma. Similarly, even though she proposed other people in the MLC and Rajya Sabha that came after that.. ignoring their words.. in a way that no one expected, the Kamalam Party Delhi leaders selected Somu Veerraju for the MLC post.. and Paka Satyanarayana for the Rajya Sabha. It must be said that this was a shock to Purandeswari.

Purandeswari’s importance has been slowly decreasing since before the elections. In the recent MLC elections, not only was Somu Veerraju given a ticket, but also the decision to send a B-form for Somu Veerraju at the airport, and the decision to allot tickets to Somu Veerraju and Paka Satyanarayana, who have been branded as close followers of Somu Veerraju, are being made. In key decisions, in matters where their word prevails, Somu Veerraju is more qualified than Purandeswari. The talk in AP BJP circles is that there are clear possibilities of key changes and additions in the AP BJP.
