The last day for filing nominations for the upcoming MLC elections in Telangana is March 10, and the ruling party is fully prepared for the same.
Considering the strength of the ruling outfit in Telangana assembly, Congress has confirmed 3 MLC posts and they’ve gracefully allocated 1 seat to their ally CPI, despite the fact that they have only one single MLA.
Coming to the Congress candidates, they’ve given the posts to legendary actress-politician Vijayashanthi, and two congress veterans Addanki Dayakar and Shankar Nayak.
Thanks to her continued efforts in Telangana politics, Vijay Shanti has now managed to secure an MLC position on behalf of the Congress party. Addanki Dayakar was anyway projected to win the MLC seat recognition but Shankar Nayak is the unexpected entry here.
BRS will be getting one MLC post and their decision isn’t finalized till now. The MIM and other troopers are hopeful of wresting one MLC seat somehow based on final permutations and combinations.
