The Andhra Pradesh Bharatiya Janata Party seems to be very confident about winning the upcoming Tiruapti by-polls, despite getting less than NOTA votes in the 2019 general elections. It’s surprising to see or even be able to comprehend the fact that the party could get so strong just within a span of two years.
The BJP has been able to take away four MPs from the TDP so far, but not a single MLA. Despite that, the BJP is making a lot of fuss in Andhra Pradesh and is expecting to get a huge victory. It is also expecting complete support from its ally Jana Sena in the elections.
According to sources, if the BJP manages to win the Tirupati by-elections, then the BJP candidate would get a lot of offers, and a possible Union ministry. Telangana BJP member Kishan Reddy is a Union Minister, however, no one from Andhra Pradesh has been made a Union Minister as the BJP hasn’t got many votes from Andhra Pradesh.
It is also being said that the BJP would get funds from the centre for developing Tirupati, in case it won. It will be interesting to see if the BJP will manage to develop Tirupati as much as it managed to develop the state when it was allied with TDP, from 2014 to 2018.
