Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) president and Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao on Monday announced tickets to all the sitting MLAs in the erstwhile Medak district, except at Narsapur Assembly constituency. This was kept pending as State Women’s Commission chairperson V. Sunitha Lakshma Reddy is lobbying hard to get the party nomination.
Mr. Chandrasekhar Rao will contest from his present seat at Gajwel in Siddipet district in addition to Kamareddy Assembly constituency bordering Medak district.
For the seventh time, Minister for Finance and Health T. Harish Rao would be contesting from Siddipet Assembly constituency.
Coming to Dubbak, sitting Lok Sabha member from Medak K. Prabhakar Reddy has been awarded the party nomination. Solipeta Sujatha, who contested by-election after the death of her husband and MLA S. Ramalinga Reddy, was denied a ticket.
Husnabad was allotted to sitting MLA V. Satish Kumar, who was instrumental in completing the Gouravelli reservoir.
Despite serious efforts by MLC S. Subhash Reddy and MLA M. Hanumantha Rao, Medak Assembly ticket was announced to MLA M. Padma Devender Reddy.
Some supporters of Narsapur MLA Ch. Madan Reddy met Mr. Harish Rao and said it was not acceptable to them to work for V. Sunitha Lakshma Reddy, who was defeated twice by the MLA. The Minister reportedly promised to take the issue to the notice of the party president.
