A defeat in kuppam will serve as the final nail in his political coffin because he has promised to return to the state assembly only in the capacity of chief minister. Naidu cannot become the chief minister even if the tdp wins because he lost his assembly seat. Because of this, there are rumours that Naidu is seriously considering running for office in a second assembly district. The tdp leader has suffered a moral setback, but according to party sources, it would still be preferable to really losing.

Second, there have been instances in the past where party leaders have run in more than one district; ntr did so twice. megastar chiranjeevi and Jana Sena leader Pawan kalyan both ran for two seats. Even in Telangana, kcr ran for office in two different lok sabha and assembly districts.

Therefore, there is nothing improper about running from two seats. The YSRC members may make a big deal out of it, but after the elections are finished, it won't really matter, according to party sources. Evidently, Naidu is seeking a safer district within Rayalaseema, and there's a good chance he'll pick one in Anantapur, where the tdp is more potent. "He will keep that if he wins kuppam again. Otherwise, he can still represent another constituency as an MLA, according to the sources.
