Both prominent leaders from Andhra Pradesh, Chandrababu Naidu and Pawan Kalyan, attended the NDA meeting, affirming their belief that India, under Narendra Modi’s leadership, is poised for significant progress.
Speculation suggests that Naidu has requested 5-6 ministerial positions and the Speaker post for the TDP+ Alliance at the central level. However, the implications for state politics remain uncertain.
Despite doubts regarding Pawan Kalyan’s potential acceptance of a ministerial post in Andhra Pradesh, reports indicate that two MLAs from Janasena are likely to secure ministerial roles. Nadendla Manohar is expected to receive a prominent ministry, and discussions involving Pawan Kalyan, Nagababu, and Manohar are ongoing to identify the most suitable candidate for the other position.
Additionally, one of the two MPs from the Janasena Party—Kakinada MP Uday Srinivas or Machilipatnam MP Balashowry—may receive a ‘Ministry of State’ in accordance with Naidu’s requests to Narendra Modi, according to sources. The final outcome remains to be seen.
