One observation to be made is that Nara Lokesh is now addressing the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Jagan Mohan Reddy, as only "Jagan" and not "Jagan Reddy".
Previously, Lokesh used to emphasize the "Reddy" in Jagan's name and openly mocked him for allegedly promoting Reddy fanaticism.
However, this strategy has suddenly changed. Not surprisingly, Janasena chief Pawan Kalyan is also adopting the same approach.
Upon investigation, it has been revealed that the TDP believes that there is an anti-incumbency mood even among the majority Reddy community in the state.
The TDP fears that constantly reiterating the word "Reddy" may potentially result in losing Reddy votes.
Therefore, both Nara Lokesh and Pawan Kalyan have been instructed to avoid emphasizing "Reddy" in their political speeches. This rule applies to other TDP leaders as well.
The TDP firmly believes that a significant number of Reddys, both wealthy and impoverished, are disappointed with Jagan Mohan Reddy for not providing them with any special treatment or even basic attention. So by placating them, the TDP believes that they may vote for their party.
The truth of this belief can only be determined after the 2024 election results.
