Chief Minister Revanth Reddy will be banking on his three-pronged strategy — schemes, sentiment and restoration of self-respect — for the party campaign in the State for the Lok Sabha elections, which is scheduled to be launched in the first week of April at Tukkuguda.
The Parliament elections would be a litmus test for the entire State party leadership, even as they appear to be confident of the fruits of the five months of rule, by May 13, when the voters will go to the polling booths for the first time after the Congress government took over.
Exuding confidence, Mr. Reddy himself declared that people should vote based on his government’s performance. He would have obviously chosen this narrative keeping in mind that people would also gauge his rule in the two harsh summer months before the elections.
