TRS party president K.Chandra Shekar rao has announced K.Keshav rao as party candidate for Rajya Sabha elections. However, TRS has just 17 MLAs and backing of 5 TDP rebel MLAs for him, where as he need 39 MLAs support to win the elections. KCR said he knows very well how to pass him in the elections battle.
However, he did not mention who those 17 MLAs are going to support KK. Since, all the T-Congress MLAs have to vote for their own party candidate, TRS can’t expect any support from them. So, KCR might be relying upon T-TDP or this might be just a game plan to encourage defections in T-TDP, which is badly affected by its stand on bifurcation.
Chandrababu has strongly condemned the T-bill in the house day before and probably going to oppose it during his speech in the house today. If so, it may provoke his T-leaders and may force them for cross voting in favor of TRS candidate K.Keshav rao, expects TRS party.
