The alleged attempt by the BJP to buy four of the TRS MLAs in Telangana is shaking the politics of the second Telugu state in the country.
The issue had gone to the high court with the BJP filing a suit and the rest will be discussed and decided in the court.
Quite interestingly, the issue seems to have given a sigh of relief to TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu in Andhra Pradesh.
He is accused of buying one TRS MLC in the past and he carries the blame over his head.
The allegation of Chandrababu Naidu trying to buy TRS MLC casts shadow on his political career as his critics target him.
He is blamed for leaving the common capital – Hyderabad – in one year only on this allegation.
His rivals say that Naidu had run away from Hyderabad to Vijayawada only to save his skin from the allegation, where present TS Congress president A Revanth Reddy was caught on camera while offering money to the TRS MLC.
The TRS had done the same exercise and caught three BJP leaders in executing the purchase of four TRS MLAs.
This scam involves attempt to purchase four MLAs, while Naidu is accused in an attempt to purchase one MLC.
The four MLAs crime is bigger than the one MLC crime and thus Naidu and his supporters thank the BJP for drawing the bigger line to undermine Naidu’s alleged crime.
Like the bigger line always makes the existing line smaller, Naidu’s crime line is now made a small line.
The TDP chief and his supporters are of the opinion that people will forget his small line as the BJP’s bigger line occupies the top slot.
Thus the TDP chief and his supporters are heaving a sigh of relief and believe that “Note for Vote” tag will go away from Naidu’s name.
