In the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), many leaders now have a new center for presenting their requests.
In the past, leaders used to wait for an appointment with Chandrababu Naidu, which was often difficult to secure.
Now, without much hassle, they can easily get an appointment with Nara Lokesh. Lokesh, seen as the future leader of the party, is giving priority to meeting party leaders from all levels.
As a result, the number of leaders seeking to meet Lokesh has increased significantly.
Many leaders believe that by sharing their concerns with Lokesh and staying in his good books, they have a better chance of securing positions.
This has led to a competitive rush, especially among second- and third-tier leaders from Uttarandhra, to meet Lokesh. He is also taking the time to listen to their issues and learn about them in detail.
With the coalition government in power in Andhra Pradesh, there are many opportunities available. Leaders believe that one meeting with Lokesh could open doors to potential roles.
Lokesh is seen as a key figure within both the party and the government, which is why everyone's focus is on him. Leaders think that if they gain his approval, their future is secure.
While one round of nominated posts has already been filled, competition among party members for the remaining positions is intense.
