Tirupati: The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams chairman Putta Sudhakar Yadav is facing a Herculean task in Mydukur assembly seat in Kadapa district, where he has been pitted against YSR Congress’s sitting legislator Settipalli Raghurami Reddy for the second time.Past record shows that Sudhakar Yadav, who was fielded by the Telugu Desam Party from Mydukur in the 2014 general elections, lost to YSRC’s Raghurami Reddy by a margin of 11,522 votes.However, despite his electoral defeat in 2014, the TDP had appointed Sudhakar Yadav as the TTD chairman last year for three reasons — his relationship with state finance minister Yanamala Ramakrishnudu, the ‘BC factor’ and in a bid to consolidate vote base in Kadapa, the home district of YSRC chief YS Jaganmohan Reddy.Now as he gears up to contest against Raghurami Reddy again, Sudhakar Yadav believes that his position as the TTD chairman would make a big difference and help cement his winning chances.Speaking to TOI, Sudhakar Yadav said, “The TDP-led government has launched numerous welfare schemes, including the Pasupu-Kumkuma, housing, hike in welfare pensions, loan waivers for farmers and women etc, all of which have benefited the masses of Mydukur constituency.
