Union Minister for Science and technology, S. Jaipal Reddy has become the front runner to take reigns of Telangana state as first chief minister of the new state.
Jaipal Reddy may get the chance if the TRS opt for pre poll or post poll alliance instead of merger with the Congress party.
Moreover, Jaipal Reddy may not get much resistance from many other aspirants of the CM post from the Congress party.
The Congress party may like to go for elections after installing it’s candidate as Chief minister of Telangana state as the TRS is perceived as untrustworthy partner for various reasons.
Days are numbered for the Indian National Congress in Telangana. It is the TDP which ultimately get the benefit of bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh. There would be exodus to the TDP in as much as the fact that the TRS is a short lived party which even its ally INC has no faith on its honesty on merger or support. It is an open fact that people of Telangana region do not want the division of Telugu speaking people of Andhra Pradesh as there have been close relationships among people of AP be through marriage or familiarity or business. Installation of S. Jailpal Reddy would further add insult to the injury of the aspirants for the Chief Minister’s post.
