AICC appoints Kumar Goud as Telangana Pradesh Congress President

Hyderabad: The All India Congress Committee (AICC) has decided to make a significant change in the leadership of the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC). Senior leader B Mahesh Kumar Goud, has been appointed as President of Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee replacing A Revanth Reddy on Friday.

Belongs to the Backward Classes
Goud, who belongs to the Backward Classes (BC), is also known to be a close ally of the Chief Minister CM Revanth Reddy,

An official announcement regarding his appointment is announced. 

This decision was made after several discussions involving AICC President Mallikarjuna Kharge, Rahul Gandhi, CM Revanth Reddy, Deputy CM Bhatti Vikramarka, and other senior leaders from the state.

Balance between Northern and Southern parts
The party leadership felt it was important to choose a leader from North Telangana to maintain a balance between the Northern and Southern parts of the state. Mahesh Kumar Goud hails from Nizamabad in North Telangana, while the outgoing President, Revanth Reddy, is from Mahbubnagar in South Telangana.

Several senior leaders were considered for the position, including Madhu Yashki Goud, P Balaram Naik, and A Lakshman. However, the party ultimately decided to go with Revanth Reddy’s suggestion to appoint Mahesh Goud as the new Telangana Congress President.

In addition to the leadership change, the party high command has also approved the expansion of the state Cabinet. This expansion is expected to take place within a week. (with Agency inputs)
