It appears that Lokesh is gearing up for the upcoming election by embarking on a padayatra. The heat is on, even though it's still a year away. Lokesh is currently finalizing candidates for each constituency a year ahead of time.
There is no clarity if he's following party leader Chandrababu's instructions, but Lokesh is announcing candidates in his meetings.
However, there is a concern about the promises made during these announcements. If a stronger candidate emerges in a particular constituency, will the promised candidate be replaced? And if so, how will they convince the replaced candidate?
To date, Lokesh has announced candidates for Satyavedu, Nagari, Palamaneru, Chandragiri, and Kalahasti constituencies in Chittoor district.
