Butta Renuka takes active part in Mahanadu!

Butta Renuka takes active part in Mahanadu!

Lok Sabha member from Kurnool Butta Renuka seems to have got a firm assurance from Telugu Desam Party president and chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu that she would get the party ticket for Kurnool parliamentary seat in the next elections.

Butta, who defected from YSR Congress party, has also been staying away from the TDP to be on the safe side all these days.

She never took active part in the TDP activities, though she sent all her followers into the TDP long ago.

At one stage, she also gave an impression that she might join the Bharatiya Janata Party, as she met Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with the family at a time when the TDP was fighting with the BJP.

But now, Butta seems to have decided to formally join the TDP. For the last three days, she had been actively involved in the Mahanadu, party’s annual conclave held at Vijayawada.

She was the cynosure of all eyes on the stage, as she moved freely on the stage wearing TDP yellow badge.

She touched the feet of Naidu on the second day, as soon as she got onto the stage. And on the third day, she was seating along with prominent TDP leaders and MPs in the front row.

Butta already declared that she would contest on Telugu Desam Party ticket from Kurnool in 2019 general elections.

She told media that there was no truth in the reports that she would contest the assembly elections in 2019 from Yemmiganur assembly constituency.

“I will contest only Lok Sabha elections and from Kurnool again. This time, I would contest on TDP ticket,” she added.
