TDP MLA shocked, Chandrababu to pitch in Mahesh Yadav?

In what could be a big setback for turncoat MLA Ashok Reddy, the ruling TDP is reportedly planning to make industrialist Putta Mahesh Yadav as its candidate from Giddalur in the next elections. 

According to reports, the preparations have already begun as the intel reports and secret surveys have shown that Ashok Reddy, who ditched YSRCP to join the TDP, is hated in the constituency. The people, on several occasions, have publically reprimanted him and criticized him for his insensitivity in dealing with local issues.

Mahesh is son of Putta Sudhakar Yadav, TDP incharge for Mydukur and is a famed industrialist. He is also closely related to Finance Minister Yanamala Ramakrishnudu, one of the top leaders in the TDP.

Mahesh Yadav’s choice has put paid to the political dreams of Ashok Reddy, who cannot go back to the YSRCP, reports said.
