All of a sudden, we notice how busy Sharmila's camp has been lately. Republic tv in particular has been covering YSRTP extensively in the national media lately. trs backers claim that the governor and Modi's unity is proof that the bjp is pressuring sharmila to disparage the kcr administration. They claim that the evidence is that sharmila has received substantial attention on Republic tv, the BJP's mouthpiece.
Supporters of the bjp claim that trs is exploiting sharmila to try and split the opposition to the government in every way possible. The widespread consensus is that YSRTP may have paid for a National Channels PR effort to portray the party as exciting.
