Campaign

According to an analysis, special category status for state, capital issue, Y. S. Vivekananda Reddy's murder, attack on Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy,[11] and cases against N. Chandrababu Naidu are the key issues.[12] Candidates are campaigning by interacting with common people and taking part in their work such as making tea, ironing clothes and weighing vegetables.[13] Movies and songs to promote own political party denigrate other party leaders have become common by main parties in the state. Use of social media to amplify the reach of such content to the voter has become a core strategy of parties.[14]
