Sattenapally Ground Report : Sattenapally is one of the hottest constituencies in AP. Many warriors represented from this constituency. Gandhian Vavila Gopala Krishnaiah and Amanchi Narasimha Rao belong to this constituency. Former CM's building Venkatarao is associated with this constituency. In 2014, local MLA Kodela Sivaprasada Rao was elected as the first speaker of Navandhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly. After losing the last election, he committed suicide. Ambati Rambabu, who won as an MLA, became a minister. Currently, Ambati is once again contesting as a YCP candidate. Former Minister Kanna Lakshminarayana has entered the fray as the alliance's candidate. This made the competition interesting here.
As both the opponents belong to the same social class… a tight fight is going on here. Janasena is an additional strength for Telugu Desam Party. Ambati Rambabu, who is accused of corruption, is facing a difficult situation in the elections. Kanna Lakshminarayana is a non-local. Also a senior leader in Congress. In the past, Kanna won Pedakurapadu and Guntur West constituencies and also worked as a minister. There are good relations in Sattenapally too. In 2019, Kanna contested as Narasa Raopet MP from BJP and lost. He was the state president of BJP and resigned from the post after the election. Joined TDP. With this, Chandrababu entrusted him with the in-charge of Sattenapalli. Since then he has been working to strengthen the party. Dissatisfied leaders of YCP were brought into Telugu Desam Party along with coordination of TDP leaders.
Ambati Rambabu has strong opposition within his own party. In every mandal, the second tier leadership is opposing Ambati. There is an allegation that they are charging a rate for each job. Finally, there are allegations that even in the CM's relief fund, he has shown his hand. A case has also been registered against him for collecting money in the name of Sankranti celebrations. Especially in Sattenapalli, there is a rumor that the Arya Vaishyas have moved away from the YCP because they did not like the Vasulla Parvam. All this will turn negative.
More than the above development.. there is more controversy. Especially after making inappropriate comments on Pawan Kalyan.. along with the fans of Power Star, Kapu society is angry. There is criticism that Ambati is not paying much attention to the development of Sattenapalli constituency, which has a good chance as a minister. There is a slander on Ambati that he has used the minister's position only for shouting. But Ambati is confident that Jagan's welfare schemes will win him over. As Kanna Lakshminarayana is a non-local and Kodela Sivaprasad's family refused to help, Ambati Rambabu is confident that the victory is his. But at the field level, danger bells are ringing for him.
