As previously reported, Janasena Chief Pawan Kalyan has announced his candidacy as an MLA from the Pitapuram assembly constituency in Kakinada district. This decision has sparked significant backlash from TDP leader SNSV Varma, who had expected to secure the assembly seat for himself.

Pawan Kalyan’s choice to contest in Pitapuram has stirred up controversy, resulting in a major outcry at the TDP office. In a display of dissent, TDP supporters from Pithapuram burned the TDP and Janasena alliance’s manifesto, TDP flags, and photographs of Varma with Nara Lokesh.

Earlier today, Varma met with Chandra Babu Naidu, where Naidu assured him that he would be named in the first list of MLC candidates. Naidu urged the entire Pithapuram TDP cadre to collaborate with JSP supporters and work diligently for Pawan Kalyan’s resounding victory.

Speaking to the media, Varma likened himself to a disciple of Chandrababu Naidu, emphasizing that the entire TDP cadre would support Pawan Kalyan and ensure his overwhelming success in the elections.
