Chandrababu's decision to form an alliance with the bjp is being widely criticized as a significant mistake. Despite opinion polls indicating the TDP's potential for victory, this alliance is seen as a hindrance to the party's success in Andhra Pradesh. Despite Chandrababu's extensive 40 years of political experience, his current approach is viewed as flawed, potentially alienating public support.

Reports suggest that the congress PARTY' target='_blank' title='ysr congress-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>ysr congress Party is actively working to bolster its image through media and social media platforms, posing a challenge to the TDP. While there was substantial criticism of the ycp regime a year ago, recent sentiments indicate a shift towards positive perceptions of their governance.

Recent opinion polls indicate that while the TDP+ alliance is not projected to suffer defeat in Andhra Pradesh, the BJP's performance within the alliance is deemed lacking. The tdp is expected to win the majority of contested seats, with the Jana Sena also achieving success. However, the BJP's performance falls short, winning only two of the contested seats out of six.

Some analysts argue that if the tdp and Jana Sena had contested in the seats allocated to the bjp, the congress PARTY' target='_blank' title='ysr congress-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>ysr congress Party's seat count would have been significantly reduced. Consequently, the alliance with the bjp is seen as yielding more losses than gains for Chandrababu. Critics suggest that aligning with the bjp, akin to a "lame horse," has become a burdensome decision for Chandrababu, potentially jeopardizing the TDP's electoral prospects.
