Many aspirants are approaching the party via Lokesh channel. Daraneni Roja Rani, an aspirant for the Huzurnagar ticket, sought the appointment of Lokesh to present her candidature. She went to the Indo-American Cancer Hospital Friday, where the first anniversary of the NTR Memorial Blood Bank was celebrated, and submitted a list of names for the TDP’s dream programme the Cash Transfer Scheme to Lokesh. Later, she sought his appointment on a later date and got a positive response.

“As Naidu wanted the leaders to suggest names of those eligible for the CTS, I gave a list to Lokesh,” Roja Rani said while admitting that she was trying for Huzurngagar Assembly TDP ticket.

Lokesh, however, refused to speak to the media. “I am not a celebrity. I do not want to speak to the media,” he said.
