In a big jolt to KCR several individuals, including former legislators, ministers, and officials from the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), led by K Chandrashekar Rao, have switched their allegiance to the Congress in Telangana. This development occurred on Monday, preceding the upcoming state assembly election later this year.
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and former party chief Rahul Gandhi were present during the leaders’ transition to the Congress on Monday.
Among the leaders who joined the Congress are former Member of Parliament Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, former minister Jupally Krishna Rao, and former Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) Panyam Venkateswarlu, Koram Kanakaiah, and Kota Ram Babu. Additionally, Rakesh Reddy, the son of BRS Member of the Legislative Council (MLC) Narsa Reddy, also joined the Congress.
