Telangana CM Revanth Reddy adopts a style of functioning different from KCR

Hindustan Times  

It has been a week since Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee president A Revanth Reddy assumed charge as the new chief minister of the state, after his party wrested power from Bharat Rashtra Samithi led by K Chandrasekhar Rao. While KCR used to be the only power centre and decision-maker during his regime, making his cabinet colleagues more or less dummies, Revanth quickly delegated powers to his senior cabinet colleagues like deputy chief minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, N Uttam Kumar Reddy, Damodar Raja Narasimha, D Sridhar Babu and Tummala Nageshwar Rao. “The implementation of two of the Congress party’s six guarantees – like introduction of free bus rides to all women in the state and increase in medical assistance to poor patients from ₹5 lakh to ₹10 lakh under the Arogya Sri scheme – within two days of assuming charge shows Revanth’s priorities,” said political analyst Rama Krishna Sangem. BJP official spokesman K Krishna Sagar Rao also found fault with Revanth Reddy for ordering release of only ₹5,000 per acre per farmer under Rythu Bandhu for Rabi season.
