The victory of four TDP MLAs in Visakhapatnam city in the 2019 general elections proved that the ruling party does not have adequate grip in Visakhapatnam. This prompted the government to take all necessary steps to strengthen its army, especially in Visakhapatnam.
This apart, the YSRCP has been inviting the TDP leaders to join the ruling party to weaken the TDP in Visakhapatnam even further.
Based on the community, the YSRCP selected the candidates for nominated posts.
