Summary:

The TDP did a mistake by encouraging Krishnamohan despite repeated complaints from party workers,” said Balaram.He alleged that Krishnamohan tortured party workers with the help of police and they would teach him a fitting lesson in the ensuing polls. Naidu himself had called Krishnamohan and tried to prevail him upon to stay in the party. Sources said local leaders want Naidu to nominate someone from the backward community to outsmart Krishnamohan. Former MLA Paleti Ramarao, MLC Sunitha, and handicrafts corporation director Godugula Gangaraju are in the race for the ticket.
