Hyderabad: Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) supremo and Prime Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Wednesday announced Gellu Srinivas Yadav as the party’s candidate for the upcoming referendum in Huzurabad.
Yadav is the current president of TRSV, the student wing of the party. He has been a student leader in the party since the Telangana state movement.
The voting in the constituency of the Huzurabad assembly is essential because of the resignation of the sitting Member of Parliament and the former Minister of Health, Eatala Rajender. Rajender later joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Reports earlier said that the election schedule is likely to be by the end of this month, and therefore the political action in Huzurabad has gained steam.
