Jana Sena Party (JSP) President Pawan Kalyan submitted his nomination papers for the Pithapuram Assembly constituency on Tuesday, marking Hanuman Jayanthi. Accompanied by JSP general secretary and his brother K. Nagababu and TDP Pithapuram in-charge S.V.S.N. Varma, Mr. Pawan Kalyan began the nomination rally from his temporary residence at Chebrolu village. Clad in a white kurta and pyjama, Mr. Pawan Kalyan led the rally by tying the scarfs of the TDP and the BJP as a mark of the representation of the three-party alliance. Apart from his supporters, youngsters joined him on two-wheelers while women offered prayers for him along the way.
Among the other candidates in the fray from the constituency is Kakinada YSRCP MP Vanga Geetha. The JSP-BJP-TDP alliance is seen as a formidable force in the Pithapuram Assembly constituency, and Mr. Pawan Kalyan’s candidature is expected to give a boost to the alliance’s prospects in the upcoming elections.
