KCR Reshuffles BRS Leadership for Assembly Battle
The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) party president and former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) has officially revamped the party’s legislative leadership. In a tactical move ahead of the upcoming legislative sessions, key senior members have been assigned vital roles to strengthen the opposition’s voice.This internal reshuffle is viewed as a major step to consolidate the party’s influence within both the Assembly and the Legislative Council.
Veteran leaders T. Harish Rao, Sabitha Indra Reddy, and Talasani Srinivas Yadav have been appointed as the new Deputy Floor Leaders for the BRS in the Legislative Assembly. These three figures bring extensive administrative experience to the table, having served as senior ministers in the previous government. Their new roles are expected to provide a coordinated front during debates on public policy and state welfare.
The reshuffle also extends to the Legislative Council, where MLCs L. Ramana and Pochampally Srinivas Reddy have been named Deputy Floor Leaders. Additionally, MLC Deshapathi Srinivas has been appointed as the Party Whip in the Council. These appointments reflect KCR’s strategy to utilize seasoned voices to hold the current administration accountable on various developmental and social issues across both houses of the legislature.
Political analysts suggest that this leadership update is a direct response to the current political climate in the state. By placing influential figures in these frontline roles, the BRS aims to maintain a disciplined and sharp legislative approach. As the assembly sessions progress, the newly appointed team is expected to lead the charge on critical discussions regarding irrigation, agriculture, and state finance.
