Action Or Warning? Konda Surekha In Spotlight

The Congress party is historically famous for leading group politics. There is very little dirty within the party as there are many groups that are formed by multiple leaders who keep the political equilibrium very divisive in nature.

A similar scenario is observed in Telangana as well, considering that the Congress party had been facing several gelling issues here. Certain ministers had been going off track and Konda Surekha appears to be right up there.

Amidst complaints about the irregularities in her ministry and allegations of corruption, she had been under the radar. She had even strongmouthed the Congress leadership, which called for disciplinary action.

Incidentally, CM Revanth Reddy met AICC general secretary Venugopal in New Delhi and was reportedly told that stringent disciplinary action should be taken against Konda Surekha, to send a clear message that indiscipline will not be tolerated at any level in the party.

This gave a strong indication that Konda Surekha could be in trouble, and there is even the possibility of her losing her cabinet position. This message came straight from the Congress disciplinary committee.

However, the latest developments are suggesting that Surekha might be getting away with the warning this time as she has the support of multiple top leaders within the Congress.

Apparently, two AICC general secretaries, two ministers and a senior Telangana Congress leader are reportedly lobbying the high command against dropping Konda Surekha from the Cabinet.

They are reportedly advising the Congress leadership not to remove Surekha from the cabinet, but instead depute her to a different ministry. This is a positive reinforcement for Surekha who looked to be as good as fired from the cabinet.

Either way, we will be getting the final communication from the Congress leadership in a few few days, and this will decide the political future of Surekha.
