The Jana Sena MLA voted in favour of YSRCP. This helped the YSRCP get 152 votes. Though officially the Jana Sena has not commented on this, one of their party spokespersons felt that this has helped the party to come out of the tag that they were with TDP
Amaravati: The YSR Congress candidates — Pilli Subhash Chandra Bose, Mopidevi Venkataramana, Ayodhya Rami Reddy and Parimal Natwani — won the Rajya Sabha elections comfortably. Each of the YSR Congress candidates secured 36 votes while TDP candidate got only 17 votes with four votes turning invalid.
The TDP MLAs who switched loyalties — Karanam Balaramakrishnamurthy, Maddali Giri and Vallabhaneni Vamsi — in a strategic move followed the whip and voted in favour of TDP candidate in the first preference but they voted in a manner that their votes get invalid.
This would help them in escaping from legal action against them but at the same time they ensured that they do not favour the TDP. Only the young TDP MLA Adireddi Bhavani had inadvertently cast an invalid vote.
The Jana Sena MLA voted in favour of YSRCP. This helped the YSRCP get 152 votes.
