After dilly-dallying on locating the party head office in Andhra Pradesh for a long time, the Bharat Rashtra Samithi headed by Telangana chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has finally decided to operate from Guntur.
BRS state president Thota Chandrasekhar has announced that the party’s state headquarters will be opened at Guntur on Sunday.
Though it was supposed to be inaugurated in a grand fashion by KCR himself, it is now declared that Thota Chandrasekhar himself will inaugurate it at 11.35 am at the muhurtam fixed by priests.
KCR was considering various options to operate his party’s Andhra unit from. There was a talk that the Andhra BRS headquarters could be at Amaravati or Guntur or Vijayawada. Later, Chandrasekhar declared that it could be inaugurated in Visakhapatnam, after a big rally to be addressed by KCR.
But finally, they zeroed in on Guntur as the party state headquarters. It will commence operations from a five-storeyed building next to AS Function Hall in Autonagar area on the Mangalagiri road from next week.
The building will have a conference hall in the first floor for meetings with party activists, followed by administration offices on the second and third floors.
The office of the Andhra Pradesh State president comprising a guest room, a conference hall and a personal office, has been established on the fifth floor.
Chandrasekhar invited party leaders, activists and supporters to attend the inaugural ceremony on a large scale and make the event a grand success. He said BRS was receiving huge support from people of Andhra Pradesh.
While Chandrasekhar has been operating from a temporary office in Hyderabad for the last few weeks, he will now shift operations to Guntur.
Accordingly, the BRS leaders are planning to increase the party strength in Andhra Pradesh ahead of the upcoming elections to the Assembly as well as the Parliament elections next year. A membership drive also will be launched soon, Chandrasekhar added.
