Kishan Reddy to be Telangana BJP president?

Hyderabad: Suspense continues over who will take charge as the state BJP president although Union Minister G Kishan Reddy made it clear that it shall be status quo.

In the past week, there have been reports of the BJP high command making up its mind to change guard at the state level and bring in Kishan Reddy as the president of the Telangana unit, while the current head of the state and Karimnagar MP Bandi Sanjay will be shifted as Minister of State in the Union cabinet.

Sources in the BJP party stated that the ‘big decision’ was anticipated following long talks held between the state leaders and the BJP high command including Union home minister Amit Shah following an ultimatum issued by the dissenting group, led by former minister Eatala Rajender and others, that they would be forced to shift their loyalties if there is going to be no leadership change.
