Political rumours are once again creating buzz in AP. Just days ago, stories surfaced about Chandrababu and Lokesh being in line for the PM post after Modi decides to exit.
Before that speculation settled, fresh rumours began circulating.
The latest talk suggests that Lokesh may soon become CM. One rumour even claimed that Lokesh would be announced as the next CM after Ugadi, 2026. These claims have triggered intense discussion in political circles.
Amid these rumours, the Minister of Housing, Parthasarathi, addressed the media. He stated that Lokesh has proven himself as a leader with vision. He added that Lokesh's style of functioning matches that of his father.
Parthasarathi further said that after Chandrababu, Lokesh is their second leader. He also mentioned that Chandrababu and the alliance partners must take a collective decision on the matter. His comments have now become the centre of attention.
The remarks have created a strong buzz within political circles and the TDP. Many view Lokesh as the heir apparent of Chandrababu Naidu. The minister's statement has only intensified this perception.
In the past, several younger leaders have openly supported Lokesh as a CM candidate. Now, all eyes are on Chandrababu and Lokesh. Political observers are waiting to see if either of them will respond to these growing rumours.
