Ruling party plays development card; TDP cadres get a morale boost after Naidu’s visit
The maiden election to the two-year-old Kuppam Municipality with 25 wards and 39,000 voters is all set to witness a battle between the ruling YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) and main opposition Telugu Desam Party (TDP).
Till the 2019 Assembly elections, the Kuppam region remained a bastion of TDP national president N. Chandrababu Naidu. Since 1989, the question of the TDP losing in Kuppam never arose. However, the fall in the winning margin of Mr. Naidu from 50,000 in 2014 to 30,000 in 2019 shook the morale of the party cadres.
