Galla to join TDP today?

Galla Aruna Kumari, the former minister in the state cabinet along with her son Galla Jayadev is all set to join in TDP on Saturday. It is likely that they join in TDP in the presence of Chandrababu Naidu, the TDP supremo at 12 p.m. on Saturday. In view of the state bifurcation and her futile attempt to get MP ticket of Congress Party to contest from Guntur for her son, reportedly, Galla is leaving the Congress party to join in TDP. It is likely that Galla Jadev will contest for Guntur Lok Sabha constituency while Aruna for Chandragiri assembly constituency.

According to sources, she has already prepared her allies in her constituency for the same, mentally. Also, it is learnt that she has been advocating the ticket of Chandragiri constituency for self through her allies. Due to this, reportedly, Galla has been planning to take away a massive group of congress leaders and activists into Telugu Desam Party along with her. She has been fishing the activists from the entire district except for Punganuru and Peeleru constituencies.

It is also learnt that she has been receiving flaks from the party cadre during this course. Sources added that few leaders down the rank have raised a question that why should they join TDP. Reportedly, Galla has been holding conversations with Market Committee Chairman and Panchayatraj Sarpanchs on the very matter.

According to sources, Galla has been convincing the party cadre that they lost future in the Congress Party and can re-erect their image with only TDP. Also, she has been promising them with good portfolios, if joined along with her, added sources.

Everything is fair in love, war and politics. So, there is nothing astonishing that leaders jump from one party to the other time and again.
