It includes veteran leaders like P Chidambaram, Mukul Wasnik, Jairam Ramesh, KC Venugopal, Ajay Maken, Priyanka Gandhi and Randeep Singh Surjewala. Surjewala is also the leader in charge of Karnataka. Kanugolu was a member of election strategist Prashant Kishor’s team in the year 2014. After parting ways with Kishor, Kanugolu designed DMK chief MK Stalin’s Namakku campaign ahead of the 2016 assembly elections.

In 2021, he advised the AIADMK, but could not prevent it from being ousted from power. The same year, the Congress hired Kanugolu’s company Mindshare Analytics for Karnataka after holding a meeting with Sonia and Rahul Gandhi. A person who knows Kanugolu said he knows his limits.

Kanugolu allows himself to remain in the limelight. According to a Congress leader, he prefers to stay in the background. I believe that he does not impose his thoughts and ideas on the party. Every party has its own strengths and weaknesses. Each party has a different way of working. They understand this and try to work with the party.
