When TRS president and Telangana Chief Minister K.Chandrashekar Rao was boarding the special flight at Begumpet airport on Sunday morning (today) to leave for Mumbai to meet Shiv Sena chief, Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thakeray and NCP chief Sharad Pawar, everyone was surprised to visuals of actor Prakash Raj and KCR’s daughter Kalvakuntla Kavitha boarding the flight along with KCR.
This is because KCR prefers to visit states on special flights with few ministers like Vemula Prashanth Reddy, MLCs like Palla Rajeshwar Reddy, MPs J.Santosh Kumar, K.Keshava Rao etc.
Surprisingly, actor Prakash Raj and Kavitha got a chance to fly with KCR to Mumbai on Sunday.
This raised questions over why KCR took them to Mumbai and what KCR tried to convey with this?
Speculations are rife in TRS circles that KCR wants to project himself as ‘anti-Modi’ and ‘anti-BJP’ by taking along Prakash Raj, who is known to be the strong critic of Modi and BJP at the national level. Since KCR is trying to play a key role in national politics by bringing all parties against BJP, he took Prakash Raj with him who has got a national image and reputation as a fighter against Modi and BJP.
By taking Kavitha, KCR wants to convey a message that he wants her daughter confine to national politics and not state politics as everyone is expecting after he made her MLC.
KCR wants to convey that MLC was only a ‘stop-gap arrangement’ after she lost Nizamabad Lok Sabha seat in 2019 and she will be made to contest Lok Sabha elections again from Nizamabad or any other seat in 2024. KCR wants to indicate that only his son KTR will run the political show in Telangana in TRS and government and he will not create another power centre in TRS by continuing Kavitha in state politics.
