Andhra Pradesh General (Lok Sabha) Elections 2014



The Andhra Pradesh Lok Sabha election of 2014 has assumed special significance in the national politics after the Telangana issue. The central government, earlier going ahead with the decision to make Telengana a state, rolled it back following fierce protest. In fact, the current Chief Minister of the state, Nallari Kiran Kumar Reddy, has raised his voice any division of Andhra Pradesh, after Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy of YSR Congress held statewide protest against the porposed division. However, K. Chandrasekhar Rao of the Telangana Rashtra Samity (TRS) is steadfast in his demand for a separate Telangana.

With the approaching general election of 2014, the various parties are doing their best to extract as much political mileage from the issue as possible. In the last general election, the Indian National Congress (INC) won 33 out of the total 42 parliamentary constituencies (PCs). The Telugu Desham Party (TDP) won 6 seats, the Telangana Rashtra Samity (TRS) won 2 seats, and All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-Al-Muslameen won 1 seat. In fact, the current assembly of Andhra Pradesh is also ruled by the Congress. However, the eruption of pro- and anti-Telengana movements is leadong to division among the leaders and workers of the INC itself.

INC has already started talk with both TRS and YSR Congress in order to stand a better chance in the state. However, Chandrababu Naidu of TDP has come to an understanding with its past ally National Democratic Alliance, led by the BJP, and is believed to go on poll with an arrangement with them.

Major Political Parties

The major political parties of Andhra Pradesh are as follows.

Indian National Congress

The state unit of the INC is called the Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC). It is headquartered in the Gandhi Bhavan of Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh. All the Congress party units in 23 districts of Andhra Pradesh are managed by the APCC. Its current chief is Bothsa Sathyanarayana. The current government of the state is also run by the INC, where the Chief Minister is Nallari Kiran Kumar Reddy. In the last Lok Sabha election of 2009, the INC won 33 seats improving on their last election's performance, when it had secured 29 seats.

Telugu Desam Party

The TDP was founded by N.T. Rama Rao on 29 March 1982. However, since 1995 the party is headed by Nara Chandrababu Naidu. He is currently the Leader of Opposition in the state assembly. The party is headquartered at Banjara Hills in Hyderabad.

The principal motto of this party is to protect self-respect and dignity of the Telugu-speaking people. Along with this identity politics, the TDP also vouches for provision of three basic aspects of human sustenance, such as clothing, shelter, and food. Another two poll planks of TDP are empowerment of society's backward segment, youth, and women.

The TDP has performed poorly in the last two Lok Sabha elections. In 2004 and 2009 general elections it had bagged only five and six seats respectively, compared with 29 seats of 1999.

Telangana Rashtra Samithi

The TRS has assumed extreme importance, especially in the last few months, because it is perceived as the vanguard party demanding a separate state of Telangana carved out of Andhra Pradesh. This party is headed by K. Chandrashekhar Rao, who quit TDP in 2001 due to differences with Nara Chandrababu Naidu. Main aim of TRS is to achieve regional autonomy of Telangana region, as it was before the formation of the Andhra Pradesh state in 1956. In 2009, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi won 2 parliamentary constituencies.

YSR Congress Party

This party was founded by Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, son of ex-Chief Minister YSR Reddy, on 26 February , 2011. After certain disagreements with the state leaders of the INC, Jagan split with Congress. He is the new face is spearheading fast-until-death and other forms of protest to stop bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh. He has assumed significant foothold in the Seemandhra region of Andhra Pradesh. The party is yet to contest any election. Reddy will start his electoral politics with 2014 Lok Sabha election and many analysts are upbeat about good performance of YSR Congress, especially in the Seemandhra region of the state.

Opinion Polls

ate Election Commission is entitled to hold elections in urban as well as rural local bodies in Andhra Pradesh.

Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Andhra Pradesh

Currently, the CEO of Andhra Pradesh is Ramakanth Reddy, a 1973-batch IAS officer of Andhra Pradesh cadre. The Chief Electoral Officer works under the direct control and supervision of the ECI. Some of the functions carried out by the CEO include preparation of electoral rolls, their updation, issuance of photo identity cards to voters, re-organization or rationalization of polling stations, implementation of the Model Code of Conduct, education of voters, and many more.

Andhra Pradesh Lok Sabha Election History

Currently, the maximum number of Lok Sabha seats held is AP was by the Indian National Congress, who managed 33 out of the 42 parliamentary constituencies. Six seats are won by TDP, two by TRS, and one by the All India Majlis-e-Ittehad al Muslameen. The opposition parties constitute TDP, CPM, CPI, and BJP.

Most of the seats in the history of Lok Sabha elections in Andhra Pradesh were won by the Indian National Congress (INC). It should be kept in mind that during the first Lok Sabha election of India, held in 1951, general elections were held in Hyderabad state because the Andhra Pradesh state came into existence only on 1 November 1956. The first Lok Sabha election in Andhra Pradesh was thus held in 1957. The first dent in the parliamentary seats of INC was made by N.T. Rama Rao's newly found Telugu Desham Party (TDP) in the year 1984, the 8th General Election of India.

  Election Highlights  
Major issues and concerns Bifurcation of State: The emergence of Telangana as a new state, which has been scheduled for 2 June 2014, will cause division of votes. While some have favoured the formation of a new state, others have described it as ‘a recipe for disaster'.

Unemployment: According to the Annual Employment & Unemployment Survey (2012-13), the state had 25% unemployment. It is noteworthy that the national average is around 5%.

President's rule in Andhra Pradesh: The resignation submitted by the Chief Minister of the state on 19 February has rendered the region politically unstable. This is also going to negatively affect development projects.

Development: To fully utilise the potential of the available resources, there is a need to accelerate development of ports in the coastal areas, and of the coastal corridor road networks in the state.
