Political strategists are in great demand in South Indian politics these days as we are witnessing the remarkable rise of several big names like Prashant Kishor and Sunil Kanugolu.
For now, let us keep the discussion regarding Sunil, who has emerged as one of the primary choices for leading political strategic position in South Indian politics. His remarkable achievement with Revanth Reddy in Telangana made him a hot shot immediately.
Sunil was an integral part of the Congress campaign in Telangana as he worked closely with Revanth to create a winning campaign here in the state. He played his part in the Revanth Reddy mania that brought Congress to power for the first Time in Telangana.
Many people expected Sunil to be an integral part of the Revanth Reddy team in Telangana, but he has now made an interesting move as he has been appointed as a special advisor to Karnataka CM.
The newly appointed Karnataka chief minister DK Shivakumar has included Sunil as his principal advisor at the capacity of a cabinet minister and related order was issued a few minutes back.
Sunil was so successful with his Congress campaign in Telangana that he is in demand in Karnataka as well now. He is likely to hold onto this significant position in Karnataka while looking after the party strategies in Telangana as well.
With Prashant Kishor gradually moving away from the active political arena, Sunil appears to be filling this void, and he is being significantly rewarded for the same.
