Just a few days ago, Bhimavaram’s former MLA Ramanjaneyulu, who recently joined Janasena, claimed that Pawan Kalyan would contest from Bhimavaram again. Pawan himself hinted at his desire to defeat Grandhi Srinivas in that constituency. However, unexpectedly today, Pawan confirmed his candidacy from Pithapuram.
In the 2019 election, YCP’s Pendem Dorababu secured 83,000 votes and emerged victorious in this constituency. However, it’s noteworthy that the Telugu Desam and JSP candidates together received 96,000 votes in Pithapuram. If the transfer of votes is efficient and without loss, this could present a promising opportunity for Pawan Kalyan to secure the seat.
