T for Talasani?

According to sources, Talasanai Srinivas Yadav has not only invited KCR, the Chief Minister of Telangana, for the Palaharam Bandi event, but also to his home, personally. However, the same has been denied by Talasani, reportedly. The recent news that has been making rounds in the media about Talasani Srinivas’s invitation to KCR has been intensifying the grapevine that Talasani would be sooner joining the TRS Party along with four other MLAs.

It is worth recollecting here that according to the most trustable sources, of the 15 MLAs the Telugu Desam Party has in Telangana state assembly, as many as 5 MLAs are likely to join TRS Party. Bending to the situation of alleged anti-Telangana decisions being taken by Chandrababu Naidu, the Telugu Desam Party Chief, the MLAs are said to be planning to join in TRS in the first week of Shravanamonth, soon after getting the Ashada month completed. It is learnt that the team of rebels would be led by Talasani Srinivas Yadav who previously expected to get TDP Floor Leader post and failed. According to sources, he has been keeping himself away from the party affairs over a period of time. The others who are in the list include: Prakash Goud, the sitting-in MLA of Rajendra Nagar; Vivekananda Goud, Qutbullapur MLA; Revanth Reddy, Kodangal MLA; Rajender Reddy, Naraynpet MLA. It is also learnt that KTR was allegedly called on by their rep concerning their joining.

According to sources, though Revanth Reddy was not very keen to join TRS, he was allegedly forced to take the decision due to the pressure from his supports and keeping in view of his political future. Sources added that the TDP MLAs are not able to talk to the people over the conspicuous anti-Telangana decisions like inclusion of 7 mandals of submerged areas under Polavaram Project, drinking water issues, power issue et al. Sources also said that the number of MLAs joining TRS may increase in the due course of time. More details are awaited.
