A Kadapa district court has issued an order restraining the leaders of the Opposition NDA – comprising the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Jana Sena Party (JSP) and BJP – and the Congress from making derogatory comments against Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) chief Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy and the party’s Kadapa MP and candidate Y S Avinash Reddy in the murder case of Jagan’s uncle Y S Vivekananda Reddy, brother of ex-CM late Y S Rajasekhara Reddy.

The BJP is on the verge of striking an electoral deal with the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Jana Sena Party (JSP) in Andhra Pradesh and taking a major stride towards bringing back one of its former allies to the NDA fold.

Amid indications that the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) is likely to join the BJP-led NDA, TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu met Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP chief J P Nadda on Thursday night to deliberate on the possibility of their tie-up for the upcoming simultaneous Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh.
The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Jana Sena Party (JSP) on Saturday jointly declared their first list of candidates for the Assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh, to be held simultaneously with the Lok Sabha polls.
