He is a senior politician with decades of public standing. He led the Congress Party during the time of the bifurcation. He was considered nothing less than CM material.
Even in the YSRCP, he was considered a very important player and had won all the MLA seats for his party in the 2019 elections. But, such a senior politician is said to be talking about retiring from politics.
Yes. We are talking about Botsa Satyanarayana the strongman of Vizianagaram. He is said to be talking to about retiring from politics. He is said to be telling his close acolytes that it is about time for him to hang his boots. Sources say that Botsa is disenchanted with the way he was being treated.
In fact, Botsa has been silent for quite some time. He has not been airing his opinions freely. In fact, he reportedly told his close friends that the freedom that one has in a national party is not going to be there in regional parties. He told his friends that he is speaking only when absolutely necessary.
He is said to be upset that Jagan finds senior politicians problematic. He feels that Jagan is more at ease with young ministers and politicians. His preference for the youth is being seen as a signal for Botsa. Hence Botsa is planning to bring his son Botsa Sandeep into politics and make him contest from Cheepurupalle.
