Tummala Nageswara Rao, the new minister in KCR’s cabinet is deployed to repair the anti-media image acquired by the Telangana government. Tummala mediated between Ramoji Rao and KCR and made sure that both of them got benefited. He is now focused on unbanning ABN-Andhrajyothy in the state. It is known that TV9 and ABN are banned in the state immediately after KCR becoming the Chief Minister. TV9 arrived at a compromise with the government but ABN Radhakrishna did not fall in line.
It is said that Tummala almost cleared the ABN issue and it is likely that ABN-Andhrajyothy will become a pro-KCR media very soon. It is said that Tummala also dissuaded KCR from banning the media’s entry from secretariat which would have turned all the media against the ruling party ahead of the GHMC elections.
Tummala Nageswara Rao is the senior most leader in Telugu Desam Party with immense experience and relations. He lost the last elections contesting from TDP and recently joined TRS becoming a minister. Bringing Tummala in to TRS will be a very wise decision from KCR!
