Andhra Pradesh Politics is shifting towards the upcoming local body elections as Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu asks TDP leaders to strengthen grassroots organisation, promote government schemes and counter opposition criticism. The focus on alliance unity and social media is also becoming a key part of the ruling party’s strategy.

Andhra Pradesh is witnessing rising political activity ahead of the upcoming local body elections, with the TDP-led alliance and YSRCP preparing to strengthen their grassroots networks. The State Election Commission has begun preparations, while both sides are treating the local polls as an important political contest.

The upcoming Nandigram Assembly bypoll has triggered fresh political discussions in West Bengal after a Congress leader claimed that the Trinamool Congress had offered the seat to Congress. The TMC denied making such a proposal, adding another point of contention ahead of the October 6 bypoll.

The Supreme Court has resumed final hearings in petitions concerning the Shiv Sena split and the disqualification of MLAs from the Eknath Shinde-led faction. The Shinde camp is defending the Election Commission’s decision recognising its organisational majority in the party dispute.
