Teegala Krishna Reddy Meets Revanth Reddy, May Join Congress

Former MLA and BRS leader Teegala Krishna Reddy today called on Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy at the Secretariat.

Ministers Ponnam Prabhakar, Seethakka, Konda Surekha and Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy, and one of the CM's Advisors Vem Narender Reddy were present at the time of the BRS leader's meeting with the Chief Minister.

Speculations are doing the rounds that Krishna Reddy is likely to join the Congress soon.

Krishna Reddy, who once represented the Maheshwaram Assembly constituency in Ranga Reddy district, was denied a ticket by the BRS, which opted for Sabitha Indra Reddy, who won for the second consecutive term from the constituency.

Later, Telangana Jana Samithi (TJS) president M Kodandaram and Siasat Urdu newspaper editor Amer Ali Khan, who have been nominated as MLCs under the Governor's quota, too called on Revanth Reddy at the Secretariat. Both thanked the Chief Minister for being nominated as MLCs.

Film actor Venkatesh, and his brother and producer D Suresh Babu also paid a courtesy call on the CM, at his residence.

This is the first time that Venkatesh has met Reddy after the latter became the Chief Minister of the State.
