Finally, Praja Rajyam Party president Chiranjeevi is understood to have chosen Peddapalli constituency in Karimnagar district, the bastion of Telangana Rashtra Samithi president K Chandrasekhara Rao, as his second constituency to contest the ensuing Assembly elections.
Obviously, Chiranjeevi wants to pay KCR in his own coin and disprove the latter’s allegation that PRP does not have any clarity on Telangana issue. Peddapalli is very close to Karimnagar town and is dominated by the TRS in every village. Initially, there was a talk that Chiranjeevi would choose Adilabad to contest because of its backwardness and also lack of much competition either from the Congress or the TRS.
But he seems to have changed his mind and is focussing on Karimangar, where he began his first political journey. Since then, PRP has been growing stronger and stronger in this district, particularly in the urban areas.
