Lagadapati Rajagopal, a former Vijayawada-based congress MP and once-controversial figure, has shied away from politics for a considerable amount of time. He has avoided the spotlight of the media and the vibrant political scene in andhra pradesh and Telangana. When he projected that the tdp would take back control of the government for a second time during the 2019 general elections, Lagadapati, who had previously acquired the nickname "Andhra Octopus" for his nearly accurate pre-poll surveys, proved to be a fraud.
Lagadapati said he will quit making political forecasts going forward after learning that his poll was a hoax and that congress PARTY' target='_blank' title='ysr congress-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>ysr congress party leader Y S jagan Mohan reddy had received a sizable majority of the vote. Additionally, he declared that he will not run for office again. Lagadapati then vanished from the state political scene. He was seen visiting mylavaram MLA Vasantha krishna Prasad's home a few months ago, sparking rumors that he might return to politics.
However, he affirmed that he had no such motives and had merely met krishna Prasad at a wedding celebration out of politeness. Since then, he has intermittently appeared in public at select exclusive gatherings. tuesday at tirumala, Lagadapati attracted media attention after receiving the darshan of Lord Venkateshwara during the VIP break. He told the media that he and his friends and family had been to tirumala for a darshan. Lagadapati declined to comment when asked about the state of the country's politics.
"I prayed to the Lord to see to it that the people of andhra pradesh thrive and are content. I want everyone to think positively. That's all," he added, declining to add anything else. Before the 2024 elections, Lagadapati might reappear with some forecasts. He is unlikely to discuss politics till then.
