Eversince the Congress emerged victorious in the Assembly elections in Delhi and Rajasthan recently, Chiranjeevi has not been very optimistic about his party's performance in the next elections. Though he has not expressed his feeling publicly, he is learnt to have told his close confidants that the party should better focus on 2014 elections, rather than 2009 elections. He was of the view that unless the party's organization is built up strongly, it is not possible to come to power. He was pinning hopes on the Communist parties, but the latter preferred to sail with TD, which is getting stronger and stronger.
So, shoulders are dropping for Chiru; and it is good omen for Y S Rajasekhara Reddy!
