Andhra Pradesh sources have stated that Lokesh claiming to win 175 assembly constituencies out of 175 assembly seats in AP in 2019 have shocked even political experts given that it is not so easy to out Jagan Mohan Reddy at least in his own constituency. However, Lokesh exuded confidence citing that government's development agenda and water supply to all constituencies including Pulivendula would bring them back to power.
Lokesh told a TV Channel that "Not even Rajasekhar Reddy could bring water to Pulivendula. But Chandrababu Naidu garu has made it possible. The people's opinion is clearly reflected in Nandyal and Kakinada election results". Meanwhile when questioned about whether such statements on winning 175 constituencies would make TDP leaders over confident and keep them away from working and always work for people, their own constituency.
Moreover on further prodding on 175 seats, Lokesh reassured that TDP will
win all 175 seats in 2019. However, when asked about Pawan's Janasena and BJP
too won't win a seat, Lokesh clarified that Janasena and BJP are TDP allies and
he said that their coalition together win 175 seats.
