Jana Sena Party (JSP) president Pawan Kalyan had on March 14 announced his decision to contest from the Pithapuram Assembly constituency in the ensuing elections.
But, given the discontentment brewing in the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) camp against the seat being allotted to the alliance partner and the joining of Kapu strongman Mudragada Padmanabham in the ruling YSR Congress Party (JSP), political analysts say that the going will be tough for the JSP chief.
The actor-turned-politician had been humbled in both Bhimavaram and Gajuwaka Assembly constituencies in 2019 when he first contested the elections.
