Tummala To Be Back In KCR Cabinet?

Senior Telangana Rashtra Samithi leader from Khammam Tummala Nageshwar Rao was one of the four ministers in the Telangana cabinet who faced defeat in the elections, the other three being Patnam Mahender Reddy, Jupallli Krishna Rao and Ajmeera Chandulal.

Tummala, who is a close associate of TRS president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, was one of the hot favourites to win his election from Palair.

Despite campaigning by KCR himself, the minister lost the elections with a slender margin.

However, KCR reportedly called Tummala on Tuesday evening and assured that he would take care of his future.

It is learnt the TRS president decided to induct Tummmala back into his cabinet, which is likely to be formed on Thursday and within six months, he would ensure that the minister would get nominated to the Legislative Council.

According to sources, the new cabinet of KCR will have the same old faces mostly. They include K T Rama Rao, T Harish Rao, Mahmud Ali, T Srinivasa Yadav, G Jagadish Reddy, K Laxma Reddy, Pocharam Srinivas Reddy, Etela Rajender, A Indrakaran Reddy and Kadiam Srihari.

Besides, there could be some new faces like Patnam Narender Reddy, S Niranjan Reddy, T Srinivas Goud, Balka Suman and Ch Kranti Kiran. Seniors like Errabelli Dayakar Rao and Redya Naik might also find their names in the list of ministers.

Unlike in the past, this time, KCR may induct a couple of women ministers as well and the names of Gongidi Sunitha and Padma Devender Reddy are doing rounds.
