Chandrababu: This election is a matter of life and death for Chandrababu. You have to win in any situation. Telugu Desam Party should be maintained. In case of defeat.. Chandrababu knows about its consequences. That's why all kinds of precautions were taken. Alliance with BJP. There is no effort that he did not make for that alliance. Finally, they gave up important assembly constituencies as well as parliament seats. But it seems that alliance with BJP is not working out much. There is a talk that BJP is giving support to other partner parties and TDP is not getting it. Prime Minister Modi came to the election campaign less than a month ago. Later, there was no trace of BJP's top leaders. Finally, one or two leaders came.. and made an irreparable damage to the Telugu Desam Party.
With the emergence of the Telugu Desam Party, the minorities stood behind the party. But with the TDP joining the NDA, the minorities have been moving away. With the emergence of YCP, the party started to follow. But the minorities could not digest Jagan's closeness with the BJP after coming to power. That is why there was a split in that group. Many minorities started looking back towards TDP. But Chandrababu thought that Pawan is needed to defeat Jagan. Chandrababu thought that if he joins the ruling BJP at the centre, he can easily achieve what he wanted. But this is where YCP started a new game. It is campaigning in the election that Chandrababu is anti-Muslim and has joined hands with BJP. It was exactly at this time that the BJP national leaders announced a thunderous news.
Recently Union Minister Piyush Goyal had a courtesy meeting with Chandrababu. Discussed for more than an hour. Later he spoke to the media. They declared that they were against Muslim reservations. But Chandrababu was suddenly shocked after seeing this key announcement. Goyal clarified that he is only for SC, ST, BC and OBC. He concluded that there is no reservation for Muslims. With this a new tension has started for Chandrababu. With the TDP joining the NDA, there are signs that Muslims have unilaterally joined the YCP. Meeting with Union Minister Chandrababu at exactly such a time and then speaking to the media after making these key comments, Chandrababu feels that loss is inevitable. The ranks of the three parties have come to an estimate that there will be a clear impact on the alliance.
