Surprising as it might sound, the Congress party seems to be hoping against hope in staging a comeback in Andhra Pradesh, riding on the popularity of two leaders of different mind-set: YSR Congress party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy and Jana Sena Party president Pavan Kalyan.
Senior Congress leader and former MP Chinta Mohan told media in Nellore on Thursday that the Congress party was inviting both Jagan and Pavan to take on the Telugu Desam Party in the next elections.
“Our party is suffering from bankruptcy of leaders. We need strong leadership and that is precisely why, the high command wants to utilize the services of Jagan and Pavan Kalyan to stage a comeback in AP,” he said.
However, it looks to be a completely far-fetched idea of the Congress high command, if at all, it has any such thoughts.
Jagan is highly ambitious person and he does not want any high command above him; so, there is no question of him accepting Sonia leadership. Secondly, he doesn’t need Congress at all, though the latter might need him.
On the other hand, Pavan is a fickle minded person and doesn’t have any political skill. There are reports that he might prevail upon his mega brother Chiranjeevi to join the BJP. So, the Congress doesn’t have to have any hope on him either!
