Mudragada predicts Pawan’s defeat

Kapu leader Mudragada Padmanabham, a prominent figure actively engaged in campaigning against the Jana Sena Party (JSP), confidently asserted that Pawan Kalyan, the party’s face, is bound to face defeat in the upcoming assembly elections in the Pithapuram constituency.
In a media address on Saturday, Mudragada attributed Kalyan’s struggle to gain political ground to his background in the film industry. He suggested that while the youth may be drawn to Kalyan’s cinematic persona, his elder brother Chiranjeevi commands a greater influence. Furthermore, he observed that amidst electoral campaigns, Kalyan appears to be relegating himself to the sidelines, pushing forward TDP leader Chandrababu Naidu, a move that, according to Mudragada, underscores Kalyan’s dim prospects in securing the Pithapuram seat.
Mudragada has been fervently rallying Pithapuram voters, urging them to decisively reject Pawan Kalyan at the polls. Alleging personal harm, Mudragada referred to an alleged assault during a past incident of arson in Tuni town, implicating TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh.
Commending the effective governance of Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, Mudragada expressed his desire for Jagan to enjoy an extended tenure, surpassing the legacy of former West Bengal Chief Minister Jyoti Basu, who held office uninterrupted for 23 years, from 1977 to 2000.
