Telangana Rastra Samithi president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is learnt to have taken the setback in the latest parliamentary elections seriously, as he is not able to digest the fact that the TRS had virtually lost its five seats, let alone winning 16 seats.
According to the talk doing rounds in the party circles, KCR is planning to revamp his cabinet in the second week of June and fix the responsibilities to the ministers.
In all probability, the TRS chief will sack two ministers – M Malla Reddy and G Jagadish Reddy, who have failed to stop the defeat of A Revanth Reddy in Malkajgiri and Komatireddy Venkat Reddy in Bhongir and N Uttam Kumar Reddy in Nalgonda. Apparently, KCR is reportedly angry with them.
Party sources said there is a possibility of KCR inducting his daughter Kalvakuntla Kavitha into the state cabinet after making her an MLC.
Kavitha lost the Nizamabad Lok Sabha elections to BJP candidate Dharmapuri Aravind by a huge margin of 70,000 votes. And she is completely dejected with the result and is not able to show her face to the outside world.
So, in order to bring her back into the limelight, KCR is planning to make her an MLC and take her into the cabinet.
At the same time, he is also likely to take his nephew T Harish Rao into the cabinet. So, in place of K T Rama Rao, his sister Kavitha will get into the cabinet.
