The Janasena Party (transl. People's Army Party; abbr. JSP) is an Indian political party active in the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. It was founded by Pawan Kalyan on 14 March 2014.[6][7] It is currently the second largest party in the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly and is a partner in the ruling coalition.[8] The party leader Pawan Kalyan has been serving as the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh since June 2024. The party's election symbol is a glass tumbler.[9] Janasena advocates for a centrist approach with a focus on humanism.[1]
Although the party didn't contest in the 2014 elections, it supported the Telugu Desam Party (TDP)-led alliance, playing a key role in its victory in the Andhra Pradesh Assembly elections.[10] In 2019, JSP contested its first elections, winning one MLA seat and securing about 6% of the vote share. Afterward, Janasena concentrated on issues such as farmer welfare, transparent governance, illegal sand mining, women's safety, and land encroachment, running several grassroots protests. In the 2024 elections, Pawan Kalyan helped form an alliance between JSP, TDP, and BJP, leading to a landslide victory with JSP winning all 21 MLA seats and 2 MP seats it contested.[11]

I personally feel you have to create a very centristic attitude. You have to create a balance.
