TDP gears up for Baldia polls

Leaving behind the defeat it tasted in the just concluded assembly and Lok Sabha polls, TDP is now gearing up for the GHMC elections which would be held soon and is back in election mode.
Party president N Chandrababu Naidu convened a meeting of party leaders and workers from 150 divisions and 12 municipalities on Sunday and reviewed the voting pattern in the assembly and Lok Sabha elections and discussed with them the reasons for the party’s poor performance. He also sought their opinion on the strategy the party needs to adopt in the GHMC polls.
TDP demanded direct elections for GHMC so that it would help the state to get more funds from the Centre.According to party insiders, the TDP leaders had expressed their opinion that the party would have done much better under GHMC limits if it had not conceded the assembly seats to TRS. The alliance had caused enough damage to the party and hence the TDP should go it alone they are learnt to have told Naidu.
Naidu asked them to submit a report on the issues that need to be focussed on in the Baldia elections. He also assured them that those who work with dedication and ensure the victory of the party candidates would be given due recognition when party district units will be revamped.
"The party will encourage youth and all those who worked hard during the recent polls and those who will put in their best in
the ensuing elections. It is for the partymen to see that TDP is restored to its previous glory," Naidu told them.
Enthused by the pep talk, the leaders say that they would come up with the a detailed action plan soon. They urged Naidu to decide on the candidates well in advance so that they can launch the campaign as well. Lok Satta which according to Naidu’s analysis had split anti Congress votes has already started its campaign and PRP too would be in the fray again, they told Naidu.
Meanwhile, the Medical and Health minister D Nagender told reporters in East Godavari district that the Congress will not have alliance with any political party in the GHMC polls. This has forced TDP also to think of going it alone.
