Hyderabad: As the Jubilee Hills by-election draws closer, political activity has intensified across all parties, with aspirants and leaders stepping up their efforts.

According to party sources, the names Juturu Keerthy Reddy, Veerapaneni Padma, and Lankala Deepak Reddy have emerged as the prominent contenders for the Jubilee Hills seat. Of these, Deepak Reddy, who contested from the same constituency in the 2023 Assembly election, is said to have a strong chance of being renominated. Deepak Reddy, a close associate of Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, currently serves as the BJP Central District President.

Meanwhile, speculation has been rife that the Telangana TDP might enter the fray. However, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, who held a meeting with Telangana TDP leaders at Vijayawada on Tuesday, reportedly decided that the party will stay away from the Jubilee Hills by-election. Nevertheless, there is buzz that if a last-minute change occurs, TDP leader Nandamuri Suhasini could still be fielded, given the significant presence of TDP supporters and settler voters in the constituency.

With all eyes on the BJP camp, it remains to be seen whose name will ultimately be finalized for the Jubilee Hills by-poll – a contest that has become prestigious for all major political parties.
