Before the 2014 elections, BJP had very less chances of a revival and even TDP was facing a huge threat from Jagan’s YSRCP. Then came a ray of hope in Pawan Kalyan’s Janasena. The Powerstar expressed his support to the BJP-TDP alliance in Telugu states and played a crucial role in their victory.
But things changed in these one and a half years as Pawan, who went all out and vouched for Narendra Modi’s leadership, is now unhappy with the PM not keeping his poll promises to Andhra Pradesh, the important being the special status. Pawan in fact openly pleaded Narendra Modi to solve AP problems but little did the PM oblige Pawan’s request.
Meanwhile, Chandrababu earned Pawan’s trust after he scrapped the AP government’s land pooling notification in the capital region, following Pawan’s request. Babu even specially invited Pawan for Amaravati inaugural ceremony.
Pawan-Chandrababu friendship scripted a new chapter following Pawan’s recent meeting with Chandrababu. Pawan even announced right after his meeting that Janasena will contest in 2019 elections. Well, Pawan made this open statement right at the CM’s camp office because he is moving closer to Babu.
Adding to this, both Chandrababu and Pawan have decided not to campaign for BJP in the upcoming Warangal by-elections. This led to political circles murmuring that the honeymoon is over for BJP in AP and that 2019 polls may even see Chandrababu and Pawan Kalyan forming an alliance to counter the opposition.
