praja ankita yatra starts!!!
Praja Rajyam chief Chiru is all set to commence his tour on Vijayadasami day considered to be the most auspicious day.
The tour aptly titled ‘praja ankita yatra’ will begin from Srikakulam district which is situated to the North of the State. Praja Rajyam is banking on the backwardness of the people in the North Andhra.
It may be noted that about five years ago the present chief minister YS Rajasekhara Reddy completed his highly successful ‘pada yatra’ in the same Srikakulam district.
Several leaders, mainly from TDP are expected to join Chiru party during the road show. Chiru fans in the region are waiting eagerly for mega star to have a closer look. What happened in Siricilla, the people of the region suffering for various reasons are expecting that the star will throw light in their lives.Praja Rajyam chief Chiru is all set to commence his tour on Vijayadasami day considered to be the most auspicious day.

Why chiru is so particular about Srikakulam???
His earlier tours were only to Telangana areas – twice to Siricilla and once to Jadcherla. Hitherto, he spoke mostly about Telangana issues like weavers' suicides, Special Economic Zones and farmers' issues. He participated in Ramzan festivities in Hyderabad and hosted Iftar partiesin Ranga Reddy district. His brother Pawan Kalyan, too, toured parts of Telangana including Hyderabad. Naturally, people expected that Chiranjeevi is wooing the Telanganites and that he might kick off his tour from Ranga Reddy district, which brought a lot of luck for Chief Minister Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy during his 2003 padayatra.
However, Chiru cleverly chose Srikakulam, which is equally backward district in coastal Andhra. He has received reports that his over-reaction on Telangana issues is causing a heartburn among the backward areas of Andhra. Hence, he needs to pamper them. Hence the trip and he hopes to allay apprehensions of the coastal Andhra people.
Secondly, if he starts his tour in Telangana, he needs to expose his stand on separate State issue, which he does not want to do now. His tour from Srikakulam would give him some breather to formulate his strategy on Telangana and he can explain it by the time his tour enters the Telangana region!
