While Pawan Kalyan’s meetings and speeches are getting good response, main criticism on Pawan kalyan’s is that there are no leaders or cadre in the party. Even though Pawan could retaliate to the criticism on cadre, saying all the fans and lakhs of people who attend his meetings are his cadre, he could not counter the criticism that there are no leaders in the party. It seems now he has opened the gates as some leaders started joining the party. Below is the list of those who joined or about to join the party.

• Telugu Desam senior leader Kona Tata Rao, who worked as president of Telugu Desam party’s urban district unit and also as BC Corporation ex-Chairman, joined Janasena today. Before entering into politics, he worked in Steel Plant.
• Cricket Venugopal Rao joined Janasena today. He started his career playing for Andhra Pradesh in domestic matches and he was middle order batsman and spin bowler.
• Mandava Ravi, who is known for his Balaji Educational institutions joined Janasena today.
• Konathal Sitaram, brother of Konathala Ramakrishna joined Janasena today.
• Ex-MLA Gandi Babji said to be in talks with Pawan and mostly he would be joining the party soon.

As per reports, Pawan didn’t confirm tickets to any of these and clearly told them NOT to join if they are too specific on ticket. All these are almost like new comers or small time leaders. But, as per reports, even though there are some big leaders planning to join the party, Pawan wanted to join them at later stage as he didn’t want party to be started with turncoats.
