YSR Telangana Party founder and president Y S Sharmila will contest the upcoming Telangana Assembly elections for the Paleru Assembly constituency seat.
She will file the nomination on November 4.
Sharmila has also decided to go on a padayatra in the constituency from November 1.
Interestingly, one of her main rivals will be Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, who is known to be very close to the YSR family - he is contesting for the same seat on behalf of the Congress. The ticket for that seat was given to him in the second list of the Congress released recently.
Ponguleti is known to be one of the close confidantes of AP CM Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy. As a result, the Ponguleti versus Sharmila fight in Paleru has become interesting in the political arena of Telangana.
