KCR
For the second term in a row, Telangana Rashtra Samiti has ensured that the Telugu Desam Legislative party is merged into the TRS Legislative party. Two MLAs of TDP who won in the 2018 election have joined in TRS recently.

There are reports in sections of media that Sandra Venkata Veeraiah who is instrumental in this merger may get a cabinet berth in the next expansion. Sandra is a four-time MLA from Khammam district where TRS is relatively weak.

There has been an interesting discussion in social media about KCR giving importance to a TDP MLA to the extent of giving him a cabinet berth. Social media folks are discussing if KCR still feels TDP is relevant in Telangana politics.

Interestingly, Sandra Venkata Veeraiah is one of the accused in the Vote for Note Case.
