Chiranjeevi Party Meetings Show

Megastar and Praja Rajyam Party president Chiranjeevi is in a deep confusion now. After having made a desperate bid to convince the Election Commisison authorities for a common election symbol for his party in the elections, he now wonders how he should go about in the next elections.

Chiranjeevi, however, put up a brave front before the media. “I have not insisted on rising sun symbol. But, we wanted a common symbol.

Never mind, even if we don’t get it. Chiranjeevi himself is a symbol and it is enough for us to get 225 seats in the next elections,” he said.

According to EC rules, only those parties which get at least 10 per cent of the total votes polled only get recognition from the EC and they would get a common symbol in the subsequent elections. Even in the past, NTR (TD) did not get any official symbol because it failed to get required number of votes. Chiranjeevi might find it difficult to get votes, if his candidates fight with different symbols in different constituencies.
