VSP privatisation issue puts leaders of both the parties in a tricky situation
With the election for the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation just a few days away, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) appears to be facing an uphill task.
This time it has entered the fray in alliance with Pawan Kalyan’s Jana Sena Party (JSP) and is sharing the 98 wards almost equally.
The Visakhapatnam Municipality had become a corporation in 1979, with around 50 wards, and the first corporation election was held in 1981. The election was then won by the BJP, and NSN Reddy had become the first Mayor of the city. But things have changed since then. In the last few corporation elections, including the last one that was held in 2007, it was a power struggle between the TDP and the Congress.
