Overview

• Telangana Forest Minister Konda Surekha and her husband Konda Murali met AICC Telangana in-charge Meenakshi Natrajan in Hyderabad on July 3 and lodged a 16-page dossier outlining party infighting in Warangal district.
• The report accuses a bloc of Congress MPs, MLAs and local leaders of plotting Surekha’s removal and meddling in her ministerial files and constituency influence.
• Konda Murali appeared before the TPCC disciplinary committee led by Mallu Ravi last week and has since been issued a show-cause notice over his critical remarks about fellow district leaders.
• Surekha defended her record, stating her Forest and Endowments Ministry files are open to inspection, and backed her daughter Sushmita’s reported bid for the Parkal Assembly seat.
• The escalation intensifies central leadership’s role as the AICC weighs its response ahead of president Mallikarjun Kharge’s upcoming Hyderabad visit
