No room for Koppula in KCR’s cabinet?

 

Telangana Chief Minister KCR is all set to expand his cabinet tomorrow morning. Hence he is reportedly finalized the names of Tummala Nageswara rao, Talasani Yadav, Chandulal, Indrakaran Reddy, Jupalle Krishna rao and Lakshma Reddy. CM KCR has sent the list of their names to Governor Narasimhan a short while ago. So, Koppula Eeshawar a close aide and the most trusted leader of CM KCR couldn’t secure a minister post this time also, whereas he has expected Deputy Chief Minister Post.

 

Out of the six persons picked by the CM KCR, two hails from TDP and two from the Congress and one from BSP. Lakshma Reddy alone is in TRS from the beginning. Out of the two from TDP, Tummala Nageswara rao is not an elected MLA and Talasani is facing the threat of disqualification for violating the party whip and for joining TRS party.

 

So, Tummala has to be elected to the Assembly within six months to continue in his minister post. There is possibility of constitutional crisis if Talasani Yadav faces disqualification. Jupalle and Indra Karan Reddy are former Congress leaders. But, Indrakaran jumps into BSP and got elected to the Assembly. Later he joins TRS party and getting minister post in CM KCR’s cabinet tomorrow.

 

Obviously, KCR’s choice may irk the TRS leaders, especially those who are associated with him during agitations period and expecting minister posts in his cabinet. Koppula Eeshwar and his followers are fuming upon CM KCR.
