-Kadiyam-SrihariTDP leader Kadiyam Srihari is one of the few leaders who not only missed the Vizag meeting of the party, but also made it conspicuous by his statement. He said he was not going to the meet, as he was hurt by the way he was treated by the party. Hewas referring to the earlier insulting remarks made by Motkupalli Narsimhulu.

Speculation is rife that Kadiyam Srihari was all decided to leave the party and join TRS. It is a fact that Kadiyam has not been too critical of TRS for some time now. According to rumours, Kadiyam was willing to join TRS if he were to be offered Warangal MP seat. TRS may be willing as it doesn’t want to give the seat to Sircilla Rajaiah, the present MP from Congress, even if the latter were to join TRS. Rajaiah is said to be willing to move to Manakonduru assembly seat in Karimnagar district.

Knowing that TDP does not have much chance in Warangal and not too happy with his position in TDP currently, Kadiyam in all likelihood  is looking at TRS. The dalit leader, however, still insists that he was not going to desert TDP which he stood by through thick and thin.
