TDP Chief Chandrababu Naidu’s son Nara Lokesh, the party’s National General Secretary, has had his own share of ups and downs in his political career. He received major backlash from people and opposition parties for not being politically correct on many occasions, but he is finally proving himself right now.
Lokesh has been able to get a good response from the people of Andhra Pradesh and has managed to establish himself as a leader who can be counted upon. Lokesh’s diction, body language and everything else is attracting the public and is also clicking the right notes with other political leaders. His tours where he’s trying to console those effected, and where he’s trying to stand with those who need him, are resonating deeply with the public of the state.
According to the latest reports, Babu is trying to relaunch Lokesh right now, as a proper political leader, by planning to make him contest in a North Andhra by-election. The last time Lokesh tried to win in the general elections, from Mangalagiri, he lost out to a localite, which cost his reputation dearly. Lokesh was called out for being an MP in an easy way, by becoming an MLC. If Lokesh now contests from a North Andhra region and wins, then he would be able to prove himself to the people of the state.
