Generally, when there is a triangular alliance involved in forming a government, administrative complications are almost inevitable. A similar situation seems to have unfolded between TDP MLA Ganta Srinivasa Rao and BJP MLA Vishnu Kumar Raju.
A couple of days ago, a viral video surfaced on social media showing Ganta and Raju engaged in a heated argument. It was later revealed that the disagreement centered around the Film Nagar lease issue. Reportedly, Raju had complained to the local collector about alleged irregularities in the lease issuance process, during which Ganta’s name was also mentioned.
This reportedly irked Ganta, who felt that Raju should have approached him directly before escalating the matter to the collector, especially given that he is the local MLA.
However, recent developments suggest that Andhra Pradesh Deputy Speaker Raghu Rama Krishna Raju (RRR) stepped in to mediate. He brought both leaders together—along with a few other MLAs—to discuss the matter, initially under the pretext of reviewing assembly petitions in the commission.
Given the sensitive nature and timing of the issue, it is believed that RRR brought up the Film Nagar topic during this meeting. Considering RRR’s political stature and influence, it’s understandable that he was able to find common ground between the TDP and BJP MLAs.
Notably, RRR enjoys a strong rapport with the leadership of both TDP and BJP. His close ties with both Ganta and Vishnu Raju likely made the mediation smoother and more effective. The fact that both Ganta and Raju were seen comfortably seated in the same room afterward indicates that a resolution was reached—thanks largely to RRR’s timely intervention.
