According to T-TDP reports, the stage of luring TDP MLAs into TRS fold has crossed a limit where it is no longer the irrigation minister of the Telangana state Harish Rao or the IT minister K T Rama Rao or some minister dealing with them.

With the current strength of TDP and BJP MLAs enough to secure a seat in MLC elections, KCR has reportedly entered the scene directly to rope in greater Hyderabad MLAs of TDP. In this regard, there are reports of nonstop calls to TDP MLAs till they answer the phone.

This is coming with a request from the person dialing the phone that KCR would wish to speak to them. Sensing this, Prakash Goud, Madhavaram Krishna Rao and Sayanna have reportedly intimated this to TDP leadership.

From their end, the TDP is also equally determined to stop any such further exodus while sources say KCR has now entered the jump jilani scene personally. The fact remains that if KCR can grab as many leaders from TDP into TRS, it would ascertain his supremacy over Chandrababu Naidu.
