Why are Andhra people so polarized?

Not Jagan's puppets. Leadership commands following. Leadership roles also command loyalty. Jagan's legacy and trust created natural inclination especially in Khammam and Nalgonda districts. If Jagan focuses right, swinging Ranga Reddy and Warangal are not big deal. Mahaboobnagar anyway has kurnool's influence. 

Baboru never commanded "loyalty". It's all usko usko, abraka dabra batch ever since dethroning NTR. Devineni Nehru is prime example. Being loyalist of NTR, he moved away from Baboru. Then before his death, due to community pressure he made peace with Baboru for his son. You know what Baboru did with Avinash after Nehru's death, right?. Ittantivi telgdesam lo bane untayi. How can he expect loyalty?

Revantham is Baboru man. Baboru ee Congress loki pamparu kadana, Congress tho pothu petthkunnapudu. CM bomma kooda ledhu. Telgdesam media plus Baboru lobbying with Delhi anthe. 

 

All are bachas in front of the AP leaders. They got lucky that TG state bifurcation made their futures.

cbn caste % is less jaggad caste % higher

ur logic is not right

 

Hardly 1 -1.5 percent difference would be there . In tg , surprisingly low number of reddys was reported - 4.5 percent in recent tg state caste survey . 

Kapus in both states are significantly more numerous , more than double any other community .

No , there are strong enough leaders in tg congress . Revanth in mahabubnagar , komatireddy and uttam in nalgonda , ponguleti in khammam . Even now , each of them would vie for CM post given the circumstances . One thing we would have to admit , however , is that Revanth reddy managed to defend his position comfortably . Tg leaders now have far more significant financial resources compared to AP which has struggled relatively .

Even in tg bjp , you can see etela , kishan reddy , bandi sanjay , dk aruna creating their own spheres of influence .

Caste has always been a factor. But there is something more. An important economic approach to aspects of governance. Baboru is very aligned with world bank and it's "neo liberalism" approach an approach that is aimed at  getting rid of government owned assets, reduced spending on health & education. All these areas are money making areas. Those that benefit from neo liberalism align with Baboru. Here K@mm@, K@pu, Redd1 is a non factor. K@mm@$ stay visible because unity is very propagated since the time of NTR. Not that there are no factions with in K@mm@s. 

Jagan actions thus far are ANTI "Neo liberalism". He did the polar opposite. Having govt. ownership of assets, increased spending on Education be it primary or higher , and health care. 

With telangana, Dora has aligned himself with "Neo liberalism" during his mid first term. Revanth Reddi is Baboru man. His approach is not very different.

 

Chowdarys are very united , whereas reddys are not very united . They too had subcastes till a 100 years ago , not anymore . The subcates within reddys do not see eye to eye even today . In rayalaseema , pedakanti , motati , kodithi and pakanati reddys have rivalry . Bhuma family led pedakanti reddys politically whereas motati reddys had supported gangula family . Kodithi subcaste rose to prominence as ysr and katasani family are from this subcaste . Pakanati are split between nallari , jc and peddireddy families .

Nellore has panta - pakanati reddy rivalry traditionally speaking .

In tg , motati and gudati reddys have rivalry . Gudatis side with komatireddy family and ranga reddy / chenna reddy clans . Motati reddys rose to prominence with revanth reddy and jaipal reddy .

None of them are puppets . You are overestimating andhra influence in tg . TG has got rid of ap leaders . Though I didnt initially support tg separation , I am glad it did since tdp and jsp have not contested here anymore , in hindsight .

I think even dk family and mysoora reddy are paakanati reddies.

Dk is Pakanati . Mysoora is pedakanti . Neelam Sanjeeva reddy and buggana families are related and belong to kodithi subcaste of Reddys . Byreddy and kethireddy are Motati . Not sure of Kotla family though . Any idea ?

we ourselves are motati , and have relations among motati reddy political families . my own maternal aunt madhavi reddy , mla budda rajasekhar reddy , mlc ponnapureddy ramasubba reddy etc . are in our extended family . My cousin sister though is married to kv rangareddy great grandson , though they are tg gudatis ( that family is also related by marriage to apollo and gadwal families ) .

If jc diwakar was paakanati then sane obul reddy and maddellacheruvu suryanarayana reddy also must belong to same subcaste since they were all close to each other.

Kotla also might be paakanati or maybe pedakanti as he was close to these people and opposed YSR.

Do you know subcaste of jammalamadugu shiva reddy?

Ponnapureddy Shiva Reddy ( Jammalamadugu siva reddy ) is a very close relative , ramasubba reddy is his nephew . He was assassinated , was minister for some time . He was my paternal grandfather's first cousin . They are motatis and in fact had rivalry with adinarayana reddy family , though both are motatis . From what I know , they had a very intense and perhaps the worst faction rivalry in that region , but that is something of the past now .

Now they little stronger than before. But only after TG bifurcation released them from AP leader influences. Last big TG leaders were all Chenna Reddy sishyulu like PJR and DK bros. Others relied on Delhi High Command backing instead of ground level public craze like Krishna jilla nayakulu.

What was MV Ramana Reddy subcaste? He was once considered most dangerous rival of Razanna family in Cuddapah.

Ramana Reddy was original naxalite factionist hybrid before Paritala. He allegedly killed one Ramasubba Reddy.
