Filmi glamour vs development

The battle lines are drawn in Secunderabad and it will be an interesting contest

HYDERABAD: The battle lines are drawn and it surely is cine glamour versus development as far as Secunderabad Assembly constituency is concerned.

Sitting TDP MLA Talasani Srinivas Yadav believes that his work speaks for itself and campaigning will hardly make a ‘difference’ in garnering him votes for the fourth term. “People know me from 1994 when I first became an MLA from here. Since then I initiated several developmental programmes which will certainly help me in elections,” he claims.

Yadav’s confidence

Construction of the road-underbridge abutting the decades-old Oliphant Bridge in Secunderabad and another bridge at Allugadda Bavi for smooth flow of traffic, development of parks, providing civic amenities in slums and other such works will fetch votes for the TDP.

“My rapport with people and party activists alike is a plus point for me,” he feels. He lost the seat in the 2004 elections to TRS candidate T. Padma Rao. In the by-poll last year, he bounced back, winning with a majority of 18,067 votes. With the TDP and TRS in a seat-sharing deal, the main contenders in the fray now will only be Mr. Yadav and tinseltown diva of yesteryears, Jayasudha. But it’s not going to be a cakewalk for political novice Jayasudha. Congress lost the seat in 1994, 1999 and in the 2008 bypolls.

The Congress high command appears to have nominated Jayasudha with an eye on the sizeable chunk of minority votes (Christians and Muslims have about 40,000 votes). Slum dwellers may also support her because of schemes like Rajiv Arogyasri, loans at 25 paise interest, Rs.2-a-kg rice, etc introduced by the Congress government during last five years.

Ms Jayasudha first has to sort out internal party squabbles as Pitla Krishna and Adam Vijay Kumar, who hoped to be nominated, strongly protested against her nomination. “I met all the leaders in the constituency and have faith in them that they will help me in fighting against TDP,” says Ms. Jayasudha.

The most attention-grabbing factor is the role of slum-dwellers, especially in Addagutta and railway employees in deciding the fortune of candidates. Meanwhile, Praja Prajyam’s candidate Meekala Sarangapani filed nomination papers amid revelry on Monday.
