Rosiaha on way out

With the Congress drawing a blank in the just-concluded byelections to 12 seats, party High Command in Delhi is seriously finding something amiss in the  state leadership.

Sources close to the High Command indicated that PCC  president D Srinivas has already submitted his resignation letter to the Congress president Sonia Gandhi who is likely to sort   things out in a couple of days. She is only waiting for the Telangana celebrations to settle down before the party revamping takes place.

Party insiders think Sonia Gandhi is not too keen on K Rosaiah being retained in the post and is looking for a suitable alternative to replace him. She does not want to take this step in a hurry as she feels YS Jaganmohan Reddy is waiting in the  wings to capitalise on the situation

The probables who are being considered for the top post include Jana Reddy and Marri Sashidhar Reddy. Others like  Geeta Reddy on the outer ring are also being considered. However, Geeta stands a chance in the race, according to political analysts.

Regarding the PCC chief’s post, no final decision  has yet been  taken against D Srinivas.  A more competent  person who can get along well with Jagan’s party and all others is being considered to fill in the vacuum.
