TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu is known for use and throw politics. He had used several leaders, including his family members for his political gains.
From ditching TDP founder and his own father-in-law, Chandrababu Naidu is known for using people for his political advantage.
At the time of leading a coup against NTR, he used entire NTR family members and mostly, his co-brother Daggubati Venkateswara Rao. It took no time for him to dump Daggubati.
He also used NTR’s son Nandamuri Harikrishna in the initial days of his coup against NTR and later dumped him. He used his death to hold talks of alliance with the TRS and his daughter Suhasini to contest in TS elections.
He used the two Communist parties and the BJP too for electoral alliance on several occasions and dumped them too after the elections.
His relationship with the BJP too was almost like his relationship with the CPI and the CPI-M.
Leaving aside the political parties, there is a long list of names of individuals whom Chandrababu Naidu used for his reasons and dropped them when the task is fulfilled.
He used the Jana Sena in 2014 and dumped it after the elections. He dumped the BJP too before the 2019 elections and is trying hard to get back to the party ahead of the 2024 elections.
The major work that Chandrababu Naidu currently engaged is having Jana Sena’s Pawan Kalyan on his side in the 2024 elections.
He is promising greater share in power for Pawan Kalyan and Jana Sena if the combine comes to power.
Chandrababu Naidu is also claiming that he would be ready for greater sacrifices to forge alliance and work for the defeat of Jagan Mohan Reddy.
If Pawan Kalyan gets attracted to the offers, he would become another scapegoat in the list of Naidu.
