Party posts
Meanwhile, its a double delight for Ms. Sudha Rani, who switched over to the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) from Telugu Desam Party (TDP) as Mr. Rao appointed her also as the TRS Women’s Wing president. Similarly, Gellu Srinivas Yadav, a student leader from Osmania University hailing from Karimnagar district, has been appointed president of the TRS Students’ Wing.
Official sources stated that the Chief Minister had also considered former Chairperson of Medak District Cooperative Central Bank (DCCB) G. Election Reddy’s name for the appointment as chairperson of another corporation. However, it was not finalised since Mr. Reddy is on a tour of the U.S. and it would be finalised once he returns home.
