Irked by the closeness of Mysoora Reddy with the party arch-rival Jaganmohan Reddy, the TDP expelled the senior leader from the party on Friday morning. This news presumably came in as a shock to many party leaders in TDP who maintain cordial relationship with Jaganmohan Reddy.

The reports indicate that TDP took this giant step only after apparently getting complete information that Mysoora was purportedly acting as a covert in the party. Mysoora Reddy was earlier a Congress persons who migrated to TDP following the rift with late YS Rajashekara Reddy. He was also a member of Rajyasabha.

Differences were presumably cropped up between TD supremo Chandrababu Naidu and Mysoora Reddy after the former promised him to nominate to RS for the second time, but to no avail. The angered Mysoora was not only maintaining a distance with the party but was reportedly getting closer to YSR Congress chief Jaganmohan Reddy.

Earlier, another leader from TDP hugged Jagan when they accidentally met at a place. This triggered a controversy then and the leader was served show cause notices.

Now that Mysoora is out of TDP, will he join YSR Congress league? A million dollar question again. With so much of political news happening in the state, the national media shifted its attention from other states to AP. And any small political development in the state will now become a big news in the national media.  (Phani)
