The founder of the youngest political outfit in the Telugu state, Pawan Kalyan, has finally taken the plunge. If a recent report is anything to go by, then the actor-turned-politician might contest from the Sanathnagar Assembly seat whenever bypoll elections are held.


Talasani, who won from Sanathnagar on TDP ticket, joined the TRS party and elections will be held once the Speaker accepts his resignation. Pawan Kalyan had recently said that his party would contest all the coming elections including by polls in Telangana if any.


Sources close to Pawan say that the Jana Sena chief wants to contest from Sanathnagar in alliance with the TDP-BJP and also field his party candidates in the GHMC elections. Pawan had extensively toured Sanathnagar constituency for the TDP before the 2014 polls. When his party conducted a survey to find out which seat favours him, Sanathnagar came first in the list followed by Malkajgiri and Kakinada Lok Sabha.


It is being speculated that Pawan does not want to go to AP Assembly as his friendly party TDP is ruling. Thus, he wants to contest in Telangana. It remains to be seen if Pawan tests his party’s political fortunes by contesting in the upcoming bypolls.
