A dramatic turn of events in Telangana politics saw six BRS MLCs joining the Congress party at midnight. As soon as CM Revanth returned from Delhi on Thursday night, the six MLCs made their move. Congress state affairs in-charge Deepadas Munshi welcomed them into the party with the traditional Congress shawl. This move has bolstered Congress's strength in the council to 12 members. 🌟
The MLCs entered CM Revanth's house through the back gate to avoid the media. This latest switch comes after six BRS MLAs had already joined Congress, heating up the political scene across the state.
The MLCs who joined Congress include Basavaraju Saraiah, Dande Vittal, Bhanuprasad, Prabhakar Rao, Dayanand, and Egge Mallesh. The Telangana council has a total of 40 MLCs, with two seats currently vacant. Originally, Congress had only four MLCs, but with the recent additions, their strength has grown. The BRS now has 21 MLCs, the BJP has one, AIMIM has one, and there are two independents. 🌐
So far, six MLAs and six MLCs have switched to Congress. Before the parliamentary elections, three BRS MLAs had already joined Congress, indicating a significant shift in the state's political dynamics.
