One of the long standing aspirations of hardcore JSP supporters has been to see Nadendla Manohar as an MLA and this could be realized this year as the JSP candidate looks to be the firm favorite here.
YSRCP candidate Annabathuni Siva Kumar enjoys a positive image in the Tenali segment. However, he faces allegations related to sand mafia activities attributed to his followers. Additionally, the YSRCP’s narrative on the capital city issue has garnered negative attention from voters in the segment.
JSP candidate Nadendla Manohar has a longstanding presence in the segment since the 2004 elections. Leveraging his family legacy and strong grassroots connections, he has built a loyal following among local cadre and residents. He has a clean image that is carried from the JSP outfit and this is expected to help him big time this term.
So the ground level talk is that Nadendla could be seeing an easy win in this year’s campaign from Tenali constituency.
