Revanth Reddy will be replaced after June next year, says Maheshwar Reddy

Amid reports of growing differences between Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and senior party leaders over his style of functioning, BJP Legislative Party leader A Maheshwar Reddy on Friday claimed that Revanth Reddy would be replaced by a new Chief Minister after June next year.

Speaking to the media, Maheshwar Reddy claimed that the Congress high command was not so happy with the style of functioning of Revanth Reddy and was planning to replace him. “My sources say the Congress high command has already started the exercise to choose a new CM. Revanth will be replaced after June next year. Three senior ministers are in the race for the CM post,”he claimed.

Even though Revanth went to Delhi seven times, he was not given an



appointment by Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and even his sister and senior Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi did not meet him during his visit to Wayanad, this itself was an indication that the party was not happy with him, he said, adding that a large number of Congress leaders had lodged a complaint against Revanth Reddy over his habit of taking unilateral decisions.

Congress high command was not happy with the Chief Minister on the issue of demolitions taken up by the Hyderabad Disaster Response & Asset Protection Agency (HYDRAA) and Musi beautification project and that the senior Congress leaders have sent a report on the issue to the central leadership, he said, adding that Congress senior leaders have formed a group to overthrow Revanth Reddy.
