Babu ki shock medha shock

In yet another shock to Telugu Desam president N Chandrababu Naidu, former minister and important leader in Nellore district Nallapureddy Prasanna Kumar Reddy called it quits from the party, obviously to find a place in the forthcoming party of megastar Chiranjeevi.

Prasanna has been staying away from TD politics for quite some time.

More recently, he triggered a controversy in the party by writing a letter to Naidu, asking him to step down to pave way for his brother-in-law Nandamuri Balakrishna as party president. He released the letter to the media, thereby angering Naidu. But no action was taken against Prasanna later, though other TD leaders from Nellore including Somireddy Chandramohan Reddy attacked him.

Prasanna Kumar Reddy is son of late Nallapureddy Srinivasulu Reddy, one of the founder-members of the Telugu Desam. After parting ways with NTR, Srinivasulu Reddy joined the Congress later, but his son continued to be in the TD. Now, Prasanna also left TD, crippling the party in the district.
