It is already on that the upcoming vice presidential election race is gaining significance by the day with both NDA and INDIA bloc announcing their candidates. While CP Radhakrishnan is the candidate announced by NDA, the INDIA alliance announced Sudersan Reddy, who is an apolitical person as their candidate.
This topic was addressed by Telangana chief minister Revanth Reddy today, and he had a sincere and honest request to his political counterparts Chandrababu, KCR, Pawan Kalyan and YS Jaganmohan Reddy.
Revanth communicated that the INDIA bloc took a very good decision to back Sudersan Reddy, a former Supreme Court judge for the VP position. Pointed out that having an apolitical person would mandate unfazed decisions and this is what India needs now.
Revanth then appealed to Chandrababu, KCR, Pawan Kalyan, Jagan, and BJP MPs to back Reddy, who is a representative of the Telugu states and has a rich reputation.
However, they show here is that Babu and Pawan Kalyan are bound to support the NDA candidate Radhakrishnan for the VP position. Incidentally, even Jagan had instructed his party to back the NDA candidate, as confirmed by YV Subba Reddy earlier.
తెలుగు రాష్ట్రాల పార్టీలకు రేవంత్ రెడ్డి పిలుపు.”రాజకీయాలకు అతీతంగా మన తెలుగు బిడ్డ సుదర్శన్ రెడ్డిని ఉప రాష్ట్రపతిగా గెలిపించుకోవాలి.చంద్రబాబు, జగన్, పవన్ కల్యాణ్, KCR, తెలుగు రాష్ట్రాల్లోని బీజేపీ ఎంపీ లతో సహా అందరం కలవాల్సిన సమయం.”– #RevanthReddy pic.twitter.com/t4ra2obxbR— FilmShlim (@FilmShlimOfficial) August 19, 2025
And considering the reluctance that BRS has towards NDA, it has to be seen whom they would back.
But nevertheless, it is very honest request from Revanth Reddy to these leading parties from the Telugu states to back a Telugu candidate for the VP elections. But in political and practical terms, it might not be possible for the mentioned leaders to side with Revanth on this matter.
