Is He A Plus Or A Minus?

Is He A Plus Or A Minus?

It is believed that Bothsa Satyanarayana is actively considering joining the BJP. Hitherto, the BJP was a non-entity in Seemandhra, but thanks to the TDP alliance with the Party and the Modi wave, the Party’s fortunes are looking up.

With the Congress completely relegated to the sidelines, all its members are actively scouting for greener pastures.

Recently, a prominent Kapu leader and a hard-core Chandrababu antagonist, Kanna Lakshminarayana joined the BJP.

Now, Bothsa who is also from the same community is planning to make a foray into the saffron Party.

However, it is doubtful as to what advantage the BJP would derive from admitting Bothsa into its fold.

During his tenure as Minister in the YSR regime, Bothsa was accused of the ‘Volkswagen’ scam which resulted in Volkswagen staying away from its plans of setting up a manufacturing unit in Visakhapatnam, a move that could have put Vizag on the international map.

After the demise of YSR, Bothsa tried his best to dismantle Kiran Kumar Reddy as the CM. However, the latter took on the challenge of Bothsa and had the latter in quite a bit of trouble with the excise department revealing Bothsa’s monopoly in the ‘liquor’ trade.

Bothsa had a tough time in preventing himself from getting arrested. Then, there was the controversy regarding Bothsa using the vehicles of the government for his daughter’s wedding, an act which made the headlines of national news channels.

However, the unkindest cut of all from Bothsa was when he turned a traitor to the cause of ‘Samaikhyandhra’.

Bothsa, it is believed, supported the bifurcation of the State with the intention of becoming the Chief Minister of Seemandhra.

People of his hometown, Vizianagaram were so incensed at his duplicity that they resorted to rioting and curfew had to be clamped for more than a week, an event unprecedented in the peaceful city of Vizianagaram.

Then there are allegations that Tollywood producer, Bandla Ganesh is the ‘benami’ for Bothsa. Put all these things together and what do you get? Well, it is better for the readers to form their own opinion!

Wonder what kind of goodwill the BJP is going to garner by admitting such great sons of India like Mr. Bothsa Satyanarayana into its fold!
