Upset over BRS MLC Kasireddy Narayan Reddy’s decision to join the Congress party and contest from Kalwakurthy in Nagarkurnool district, former MLA Ch Vamshichand Reddy held an emergency meeting with his supporters. Vamshichand, a special invitee of the Congress Working Committee, seemed visibly disturbed after meeting with the MLC. He later met with his close associates from Kalwakurthy and spoke to the media, saying he would accept any decision made by the party leadership regarding tickets.
On October 1, Kasireddy resigned from the BRS party and decided to join the Congress. He, along with Balaji Singh, met with PCC chief A Revanth Reddy at his residence in Jubilee Hills. Kasireddy, who wants to contest in the Assembly election, was reportedly upset when the ruling party nominated MLA G Jaipal Yadav as a candidate again. This led to his decision to join the Congress. In his resignation letter, he mentioned that his decision was due to the nonfulfillment of Telangana’s aspirations.
