Metro India News | Hyderabad

Speculation over a possible political shift by senior Congress leader and former minister Jeevan Reddy has intensified, with the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) stepping up efforts to bring him into its fold.

In a significant development, BRS Working President K. T. Rama Rao is scheduled to visit Jagityal on Thursday and meet Jeevan Reddy at around 2 PM. The meeting is seen as a crucial step in ongoing discussions regarding his possible induction into the party.

Sources indicate that BRS leadership has been in touch with Jeevan Reddy over the past few weeks, holding multiple rounds of consultations to explore the possibility of his joining the party. KTR’s personal visit is being viewed as a continuation of these efforts and a strategic move to strengthen the party’s presence in the region.

Jeevan Reddy, a seasoned political figure with considerable influence in Jagityal and surrounding areas, has reportedly been weighing his options amid growing dissatisfaction within the Congress. His potential switch could have notable political implications in Telangana, especially in the run-up to future electoral contests.

While there has been no official confirmation from Jeevan Reddy regarding his decision, the upcoming meeting with KTR has further fueled speculation. Political observers are closely watching the developments, as the outcome could reshape local political dynamics and signal further realignments within the state’s political landscape.
