While his political successor was his daughter Aruna Kumari, Rajanna was quick to see the leadership potential of Naidu and helped groom him to not only become an MLA-from Chandragiri- but also one of the ministers in the Congress cabinet of Tanguturi Anjaiah. Along with Prof NG Ranga, it was Rajanna who originally helped build the Swatantra Party against Congress dominance in the state, but he eventually joined hands with the Congress. Rajagopala was himself twice an MP, having won on the Swatantra Party ticket.
Both Rajagopala, affectionately called Rajanna, and Naidu belong to Andhra’s Chittor. Galla’s maternal grandfather Paturi Rajagopala Naidu was a freedom fighter, and, more importantly, the political mentor of Naidu. While Galla might be a first-time MP from Guntur, he has an impressive political lineage. They also would not have been surprised that N Chandrababu Naidu chose him to lead the party’s attack in Parliament.

Those who were watching on TV would also have been surprised at the strong American accent with which this MP took on the government.įor observers of Andhra politics, though, Galla is no stranger.
So most people outside the Telugu speaking states were surprised when the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) fielded a virtually unknown member of Parliament, 52-year-old Jayadev Galla, to lay out its case. When a no-confidence motion is moved, the party initiating it usually fields a senior hand to attack the government of the day.
