Can TDP come to power on its own?. Chandra Babu's TDP is set to contest 144 out of the 175 assembly seats, while the BJP has been allotted 31 seats for Janasena. Currently, there's a heated debate within the TDP regarding the allocation of seats to allies. The focus is primarily on assessing how many seats each party can secure, with concerns raised about potential losses to the YCP if seats are distributed to BJP, Janasena.

Chandra Babu's TDP is cautiously optimistic about winning at least half of the 21 seats allocated to Janasena, considering it a significant victory. However, there's apprehension about the remaining seats falling into the YCP's hands, particularly if only a portion of the 31 seats allocated to allies are won.

Chandra Babu's ultimate goal is to secure the magic figure of 88 seats to form the government independently, although this is perceived as a challenging task. The dynamics of the political landscape have changed since 2014, with alliances forming and re-forming based on evolving circumstances. There's a recognition that the success of the alliance hinges on the extent of public opposition to the YCP government.

Despite assertions from alliance leaders that they will win 160 seats, Chandra Babu is campaigning vigorously as if will be solely responsible for achieving victory. However, there are doubts about the effectiveness of this strategy, as public response to the alliance announcement has been muted. The coming days will reveal the true potential of the alliance and whether it can generate a significant wave of support.
