TDP holds crucial meeting on selecting candidates for Rajya Sabha

Vijayawada, May 30 (UNI) Telugu Desam Party (TDP) President and Chief Minister
N Chandrababu Naidu convened a crucial meeting to discuss the candidates to be nominated for the ensuing Rajya Sabha elections. TDP senior leaders, including Union Ministers Ashok Gajapathi Raju, Sujana Chowdary, Andhra Pradesh TDP President Kala Venkata Rao and several State Ministers attended the meeting.
According to TDP sources, the party was considering the option of nominating a fourth candidate. The TDP-BJP alliance had sufficient strength to win three Rajya Sabha seats. Significantly, 17 YSRCP MLAs had joined the TDP. Since the TDP strongly believed that 17 more YSRCP MLAs would either join the TDP or vote for the party, it had winning chances for the fourth candidate. The TDP leaders are considering the nomination of the fourth candidate and a decision would be taken on the issue in the evening.
