Kakinada is a picturesque, sleepy town next to the sea on the eastern coast. Not as big as Visakhapatnam or Vijaywada, Kakinada nevertheless represents and symbolises what people in Andhra Pradesh think and feel about issues that engage them. There are quite a few cutouts and posters of Y S Sharmila, who was suddenly catapulted as president of the Andhra unit of the Congress.
