Earlier TRS party president K Chandrasekhar Rao had announced that newcomer Shanampudi Saidi Reddy would be contesting from Huzurnagar which currently held by TPCC’s Uttam Kumar Reddy.
Another important constituency to consider is Telangana’s urban Warangal East from which Nannapanneni Narendar will be contesting for TRS. The constituency witnessed some turmoil last month with Surekha Konda recently crossing over to Congress from the TRS. She is now contesting from Parkal.
