Will He Really Launch A New Party?

Will He Really Launch A New Party?

For umpteetenth time, Telugu Desam Party legislator from L B Nagar R Krishnaiah has announced that he would soon launch a new political party exclusively for Backward Classes.

Krishnaiah, who is also president of the BC Welfare Association, announced at a meeting in Vijayawada that justice would be done to the BCs only if they have a separate political party.

He said he would bring pressure on all political parties to secure 50 per cent reservations for BCs in all the elected bodies.

In the last two years, Krishnaiah made the announcement of launching the BC party, but it has not materialised so far. His latest announcement is said to be an attempt to threaten the party leadership which is keen in including Kapus into the BCs.

Krishnaiah feels if Kapus become part of the BCs, he would lose hold on them. Moroever, it will also dilute the quota for BCs.

Krishnaiah knows it requires massive financial resources to launch a party and sustain it. Mere talk before the media and addressing meetings will not help him in achieving his goal. But he has to make such statements to retain his hold over the BCs.
