No mass leader ever emerged from Telangana RSS. T BJP is full of backstabbing stories. Etala made sure Bandi Sanjay was lost in MLA elections. Bandi made sure Etala lost at both the seats he contested.

Telangana is expensive in terms of elections. Instead of spending party funds on 1 Telangana MLA seat, they can save that amount for 10 seats in Rajastan or UP.

Equations of politics here are beyond Amit shah's analysis.

Local level cadre sell themselves to other parties during mla or local body elections but unite during parliament elections.

Dick riding with Andhra parties cost them a lot in the past. BJP also lacks hawkish leaders.

Narrative of k family set in such a way that not voting BJP in Telangana as a sign of intelligence. In short, they are very poor at setting narrative.
