HYDERABAD: Voters who sponsored the YSR Congress (YSRC) and Telugu Desam birthday celebration within the 2014 elections are likely to be the deciding think about Huzurnagar constituency, from the place Telangana Congress leader N Uttam Kumar Reddy is seeking re-election.
YSRC, which has chosen to not contest the December 7 Telangana Assembly election, and TDP candidates polled more than 25,000 votes each and every on this section within the earlier ballot.
The TDP of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is a partner within the Congress-led alliance at the side of CPI and TJS, named "Praja Kutami" (People's Front), for the upcoming Telangana election giving a spice up to Reddy's electoral potentialities.
But, at the same time, YSRC leaders mentioned the supporters of their outfit would no longer support Reddy as the Congress has allied with TDP, its arch-rival in neighbouring Andhra Pradesh, and their votes would move to the TRS.
Reddy, a former pilot in Indian Air Force, is making a bet on the "anti-incumbency factor" and the support of the alliance partners whilst his opponent Saidi Reddy (TRS), an NRI and IT skilled, is depending on beneficiaries of quite a lot of executive schemes within the constituency.
Uttam Kumar Reddy won the Huzurnagar seat by means of a margin of 23,924 votes over his nearest TRS rival Kasoju Sankaramma within the earlier election in which YSRC contestant G Srikanth Reddy polled 29,657 votes, and Telugu Desam Party candidate Swamy Goud Vangala 25,353 votes.
"Our cadre and YSRC sympathisers would by no means vote for Congress because it tied up with TDP which is our arch-rival in Andhra Pradesh.
So we'd vote for the TRS candidate.
And as such electorate of this constituency lost religion in sitting MLA Uttam Kumar Reddy as many housing tasks which were initiated when he was the Housing Minister (in undivided Andhra Pradesh) both did not take off or bills have no longer been paid for beneficiaries," Srikanth Reddy told PTI.
The Congress could also be wooing Shankaramma who was denied price tag this time by means of TRS by means of expressing sympathy that she was unnoticed by means of her birthday celebration.
Her son Srikantha Chary self-immolated throughout the agitation for separate statehood for Telangana.
"Entire Telangana remembered the treatment (by means of denying price tag this time) meted out to Sankaramma by means of TRS management. Congress birthday celebration would suitably accommodate her in long run.
As a candidate of People's Front, I am going win with 60,000 to 70000 majority from this constituency. We hope folks of Huzurnagar will bless us with the perfect majority.
As we do not need kids, me and my spouse all the time deal with the folk of this constituency as our family members and children," the TPCC leader had mentioned at the time of filing his nomination.
Reddy is seeking re-election for the fifth time. In 1999 and 2004 he contested from Kodad whilst in 2009 and 2014 he was elected from Huzurnagar.
His spouse Pamdavathi who represented Kodad in 2014 is contesting again.
Independent political analyst Telakapalli Ravi mentioned majority of the "committed" TDP electorate might vote for Uttam Kumar Reddy as they're strongly opposed to TRS.
"The very concept of Congress and the TDP sailing in combination, leaving the decades-old distinction, is to defeat the TRS.
There is a piece of dedicated electorate of TDP in Telangana.
They might vote for Congress candidates," Ravi says.
Saidi Reddy mentioned there are over 90,000 beneficiaries below quite a lot of executive programmes similar to pension scheme and 'Rythu Bandhu.'
"They (the beneficiaries) would no doubt vote for me.
Also folks see Congress as an opportunist as it is going at the side of TDP which is thought of as as a birthday celebration with anti-Telangana stance.
There is notion within the electorate of this constituency that Uttam Kumar Reddy is not out there to not unusual folks," Saidi Reddy mentioned.
Saidi Reddy worked in Jamaica and Canada over the past decade and returned in 2015. Since then, he has been nurturing Huzurnagar constituency.
