TDP is experiencing a resurgence of old doubts. Party leader Chandrababu draws large crowds wherever he goes, with people eagerly gathering to hear his speeches. The crowd listen intently to Chandrababu's words as people cheer and chant the slogans given by their leader.
A few days ago, a road show in East Godavari drew such a massive crowd that the roads were completely jammed, and it took four hours to cover just one kilometer. A recent road show held in Giddalur constituency was no different, taking over three hours to cover a distance of just two kilometers. The enthusiasm of TDP supporters seems to be at an all-time high, but this has brought about new worries for the party.
Prior to the 2019 elections, similar scenes were witnessed, with crowds of people gathering to express their support for TDP by lighting torches on their cellphones, clapping, and singing songs in praise of Chandrababu. The party leader was confident of victory, but the election results proved otherwise, leaving Chandrababu in a difficult position.
Despite the large voter turnout, TDP lost the election and now leaders within the party are now strategizing on how to capitalize on the current wave of popular support and turn it into electoral success but at the same time the old nightmare continues to haunt them whether people will give hand at the last moment.
