Surveys indicated that the party will bite dust and only 5-6 MPs are what it could win from the state. That makes Congress party's dream of making Rahul Gandhi as prime minister dried up. As a trump card, Sonia Gandhi has thrown the idea of Telangana formation, and its cadres in Telangana region are working hard to ensure Sonia's vision come true. Chances are quite bleak for Congress anyway, but with Kiran getting ready to become martyr, equations are getting worse. His entry as a rival for the decisions made by high command is like a prick in the seat.
If Congress is looking at clean sweeping the 17 MP seats in Telangana, Kiran is now promising them the 25 seats in Andhra region (including Rayalaseema). Though Kiran cannot give full assurance about those 25 seats, neither is high command confident about 17 seats in Telangana due to the change of tides in Andhra Pradesh since bifurcation decision.
Not just KCR is tightening his grip, but Narendra Modi factor, growing popularity of Naidu in urban sector are posing serious threats to Cong in Telangana. In one way, only CM Kiran could save Congress party by his Seemandhra saviour image. Let us see what affect Kiran will make on those Andhra -25 seats and Telangana -17 seats.
