The Support Chain is a meticulously crafted multilevel system developed by the TDP over the years.
Here's how it operates:
At the initial level the TDP aligned media, often referred to as 'yellow media' by critics focuses on promoting the TDP leadership and fueling animosity towards opponents among the public. Through articles, seminars, bulletins, and various media endeavors... they diligently pursue this agenda.
Subsequently both Chandrababu Naidu and Nara Lokesh Naidu echo the same points as those propagated in the media, constituting the second level of this support structure.
To avoid doubts and add credibility, they enlist Pawan Kalyan at the third level of this support system. He echoes the script provided by the first two tiers.
Following this, in the fourth level social media comes into play, summarizing, creating videos, and widely disseminating content in favor of the party by publicizing the narratives presented in the initial three levels.
The fifth level comprises individuals from the intellectual class who participate in TV debates to advocate for the TDP targeting educated audiences and neutral voters. Notably Jayaprakash Narayan has freshly extended support to the TDP alliance suggesting the ousting of Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Additionally Sharmila serves as a sixth level supporter being believed by the TDP that she would be useful to divide minority votes from the YSRCP.
Finally the seventh and most crucial level includes other party leaders, retired personalities from the judiciary, election commission and police department, former CBI officers, and others who support the TDP with their inputs, advice, and covert assistance.
This comprehensive support system of the TDP leverages individuals, predominantly from the same caste, along with notable figures from other communities.
Meanwhile Jagan Mohan Reddy is unveiling his new manifesto for the 2024 elections. We must wait to see what unfolds in the coming months.
