Parties focus on Kadapa bypolls

Byelections to be conducted for three Assembly constituencies — Rayachoti, Rajampet and Railway Kodur — on June 12 are prestigious for the Congress, Telugu Desam and YSR Congress. Even though all three parties have selected their candidates, they are yet to officially announce them.
Mr G. Srikanth Reddy (Rayachoti), Mr A. Amarnath Reddy (Raja-mpet) and Mr K. Srini-vasulu (Railway Kodur), who resigned as MLAs will contest from the YSR Congress.
The candidature of Mr Ramprasad Reddy (Raya-choti), Mr Meda Mallikar-juna Reddy (Rajampet) and Mr Eswaraiah (Rail-way Kodur) is confirmed on behalf of the Congress.
The names of Mr S. Subrahmanyam (Raya-choti), Mr Brahmaiah (Rajampet) and Mr Ajay Babu (Railway Kodur) were confirmed on behalf of the Telugu Desam. They have launched their campaign though their names are not officially announced.
The Telugu Desam president, Mr N. Chandrababu Naidu, has already toured the district once. The PCC president, Mr Botsa Satyanarayana, and the Chief Minister, Mr N. Kiran Kumar Reddy, have toured the three constituencies. The YSR Congress president, Mr Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, wants to repeat his huge success in Kadapa and Pulivendula bypolls in the present bypolls.
Mr Naidu is striving hard to get a hold in the district and urging party cadre to work hard, setting aside differences. The TD chief will again tour the district on Friday and Saturday. The minister, Dr D.L. Ravindra Reddy, who has already anno-unced that he would keep away from the bypoll campaign, stuck to his word. He also skipped the Chief Minister’s recent tour to the district. Party leaders pacified sulking Rajampet MP A. Sai Pratap and ensured that he took part in the campaign. DCC president M. Ashok is formulating a strategy for the bypoll campaign.
