If Congress emerges victorious in the upcoming Assembly election, the question of who would assume the role of Chief Minister for the state has been on many minds.
Revanth Reddy, while not openly disclosing any details, asserts that the decision ultimately rests with the high command.
However, insider information suggests that Rahul Gandhi has assured Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka the position of Chief Minister for a specific reason.
Rahul Gandhi aims to demonstrate that no leader from the Scheduled Caste has held the position of Chief Minister in the entire South India in recent decades and so he wants to see the Dalit Congress leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka as the CM of Telangana.
The last such instance occurred during the era of Damodaram Sanjeevayya in the 1960s in united Andhra Pradesh, but it has not happened since then.
Despite assumptions about T Anjiah being an SC, his own son-in-law refuted the propaganda, stating that he was not a Dalit.
So, if Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka becomes the CM, he would be the second Dalit CM in the history of Telugu politics.
Furthermore, Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka's unwavering loyalty to Congress is emphasized by Rahul Gandhi and his mother, suggesting that he deserves the position. The unfolding of events will reveal how things transpire.
How Revanth Reddy and his followers would take this is also a question.
