YSR Congress party supremo Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy, after returning from his 15-day foreign tour, is gearing up for 2019 elections under the direction of Political Strategist Prashant Kishor who played a key role in BJP’s victory in 2014. The very the first direction from the Kishore to the party is to stay closer to people by shifting YCP operations to the state capital. Consequently, the hunt for the party office and Jagan’s home has commenced. The leased office will be located in and around Undavalli or Tadepalli or Vijayawada.
The political strategist has already started field survey and deployed groups of 70 to 100 people to study the constituencies and know the problems and issues faced by the locals. Ever since Jagan launched YCP, he was more concerned and always addressed state wide generic disputes. The party had been missing out on the constituency wide problems.
A major problem for YCP is the party defections with more than 20 leaders joining TDP. To address the issue, the performance of the defected MLAs after switching allegiances is being researched. Additionally, public opinion on the turncoats is being considered. Also, the potential candidates for the next elections is being studied. If reports are to be believed, Jagan will be looking up to the senior leaders to target the ruling party, especially with the current spokespersons being loud-mouthed and pathetic.
Apparently, strategy is being developed to retort the autocratic rule of the TDP. If needed the party is likely to go ahead with state-wide agitations and movements. The research is not limited to the opposition but even the ruling party leaders are being evaluated. A specially attention is paid given to fetch complete details of illegal activities by the MLAs, corruption in JanmaBhoomi committees, call money sex racket and political killings. The working of local leaders is being evaluated based on community, education, employment and implementation of government schemes.
The political scenario in AP is likely to gain some heat soon, especially with the magic of master poll strategist Prashant Kishor.
