Will TDP contest in the Telangana by-polls?

Ever since the TRS MLA’s have resigned from their MLA seats, the major political parties are having big headaches of whether they should also resign or not.

However with the statement given by D.Srinivas couple of days back that the Congress would field their candidates in the vacated seats for the assembly by-polls, TDP has been in two minds whether to contest the by-polls or not.If it does not contest then the TDP cadre in Telangana might lose its morale and if it contests the polls then there might be a backlash from the people and obviously from various JAC’s in Telangana.

Sources say that some section of Telangana TDP leaders are keen to contest in the Assembly by-polls as they have a strong cadre and vote bank.

Coming to the Praja rajyam, the problems are totally different.Because of the stand taken by Chiranjeevi for United Andhra Pradesh, it has lost its cadre and probably the vote bank in Telangana.It is almost confirm that PRP will not contest because it is not ready to face another drubbing in the elections(after the GHMC polls).

So it is the TDP which has to take a firm stand. Lets watch.
