The megastar turned Politician Chiranjeevi merged his Praja Rajyam party with Congress after much hue during the elections. Now the Congress party has nominated the star for the Rajya Sabha and speculations are rife that star might be the best choice to be a union minister. in fact a major faction of the state Congress party also wants Mr Chiranjeevi to play in the bigger arena. In a way to give the required space for him and of course to keep him out of the state for personal gains too. But on the whole the star seems to enjoy his new post and felt that it was promotion for him. He also assured that he would strive hard for the party’s win in the forthcoming general elections in 2014.

Next is the issue of his Tirupati MLA seat, which shall go for by polls after he vacates. But the leader is to have assured that though Tirupati is close to his heart, none from his family would compete. He left the decision to the Congress to decide on the candidature. One nice thing that 
Mr Chiranjeevi learnt is it is much better to go with the high command, for longevity. But Tirupati was the place where the PRP launched the party and that is the place which has brought fame to the leader. His own home town discarded him, despite the so called sound communal base. Hope the leader reconciles and keeps back the seat as a matter of sentiment feel political critics. Others feel does the leader doubt his faring at the electoral, given the present situation.   (With inputs from internet- AarKay)
