Warangal Congress Feud Flares as MLA Objects to Konda Surekha’s Temple Trust Picks

A dispute over temple trust appointments has reopened long-running factional wounds in the Warangal Congress.

Overview

  • Warangal West MLA Nayini Rajender Reddy filed a complaint to TPCC president Mahesh Kumar Goud over two Bhadrakali Temple Trust appointments made without his consultation.
  • Endowments minister Konda Surekha defended the selections, saying the portfolio grants her authority and that the names were cleared by the party high command.
  • Surekha escalated the exchange by saying Rajender Reddy “won by luck,” after he warned her against unilateral decisions in his constituency.
  • The TPCC has indicated a party team will visit Warangal to address the dispute, with reports saying a multi-member group is being formed and names yet to be finalised.
  • The clash revives months of friction between the Konda family and other Warangal MLAs, following earlier complaints and allegations that have strained party discipline.
