VIJAYAWADA: YSR Congress predicted four to five seats for Telugu Desam in Vijayawada Municipal Corporation elections.
Minister for Panchayat Raj Peddireddi Ramachandra Reddy expressed confidence that YSRC will continue its win-spree and trump in both Vijayawada and Guntur municipal corporations.
Speaking after a meeting with Krishna district leaders on their poll strategy, he asked TD leaders to focus on ironing out differences within their party before criticising YSRC. Condemning TD chief N Chandrababu Naidu’s unwarranted criticism, Reddy said the TD would hardly win three or four seats as their internal differences had reached a flashpoint.

TDP Polit Bureau member Varla Ramaiah has urged the State Election Commission (SEC) to act independently and take all measures to conduct the remaining three phases of the panchayat elections in a free and fair manner.
Addressing the media on Friday, Mr. Ramaiah alleged that the “SEC has surrendered to the blackmail of and mind game played by the YSRCP leaders in the first phase of elections.”
“Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy himself has intimidated the SEC in the name of caste and questioned its efficiency. As a result, the SEC could not effectively carry out its constitutional duties to ensure a peaceful election,” Mr. Ramaiah alleged.
