Ysr spins the delhi

While Telugu Desam president N Chandrababu Naidu and Telangana Rashtra Samithi president K Chandrasekhara Rao were making halchal in Delhi, it was a cool Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, who did all the magic in New Delhi and turned the tide in favour of UPA.

Naidu and KCR were busy consolidating support for Mayawati. They thought with their manipulative skills, they could easily pull down the UPA government. But little did they realize that YSR was using all his political skills to engineer a split in the UNPA. He could not only entice Jagannatham with money and Adikesavulu Naidu with a threat to reopen the assault case against his son, but also made the Karnataka BJP MPs abstain from voting.

It was only after the voting did Naidu and KCR realize that they are nothing before YSR in so far as political manipulations are concerned!

Babu better stay back in Delhi: Botsa

Minister for Housing Botsa Satyanarayana has a piece of advice for the beleaguered Telugu Desam president N Chandrababu Naidu.

Botsa says it would be better Naidu stays back in New Delhi and continues to "spin the political wheel" (chakram tippukovacchu), because the latter could do nothing for the State. "As long as Naidu was touring the State saying Mee Kosam, there were no rains in the State. But eversince he left for Delhi, the State has been witnessing good rains. It was once again proved that Babu has an iron leg in the State," he said.

Moreover, whenever Naidu spinned the wheel for the Opposition in New Delhi, it had only benefited the Congress. This time, too, the UPA roped home comfortably in the trust vote, only because he took the lead in mobilizing the Opposition. "So, it will always be better for the Congress, if he stays back in Delhi," Botsa said.
