If KCR really goes for early polls by dissolving Telangana Assembly, can his rivals rise for the occasion?<\/p>\n
Congress is putting a brave face, concealing its handicap: having no chief minister candidate to take on KCR. Kondaram\u2019s Telangana Jana Samithi, is still a non-starter. The new outfit has an inherent flaw: the founder himself is new to power politics and no other leader in the party is as tall as the founder.<\/p>\n
BJP is trying its best to bank on at least on emotive issue, like cow-slaughter, to capitalise the Hindutva vote.\u00a0 But it\u2019s left with no time to play the trick. Again the question of projecting a charismatic leader for the saffron party from the state still remains to be answered. \u00a0KCR , therefore, may conveniently bank on his\u00a0 opponents\u2019 weaknesses \u00a0rather than on his own strengths.<\/p>\n
Though most of the underprivileged sections in the state are disenchanted with the government, there is less likelihood that this discontentment turns out to be anti-incumbency. The reason is plain enough: The parties, other than TRS, have no leader to be a match to KCR.<\/p>\n
But KCR \u00a0has one thing to worry about: The Telangana TDP may join hands with the Congress\u00a0 in Telangana. The very move , if materialised, may woo the settlers\u2019 voters. Barring this one, it will be a cake walk for him to come to power in the second consecutive term.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
