| Party did not announce candidature for any of the nine Lok Sabha seats |
It’s out: Etela Rajender of TRS announcing the first list of the party candidates on Wednesday in Hyderabad .
HYDERABAD: Amidst protests from groups that were denied tickets, the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) on Wednesday released a list of 36 candidates for the Assembly elections.
A significant omission in the list was the sitting Alair MLA K. Nagesh who is replaced by K. Yadagiri Reddy, a non-local.
The party also did not announce candidature for any of the nine Lok Sabha seats. It shifted Hanamkonda MP B. Vinod Kumar to the newly-created Bhoopalpally Assembly constituency.
The list was released in three instalments by the TRS office. It was conveyed by party president K. Chandrasekhar Rao and his close aides who were closeted at an undisclosed location.
A large crowd gathered at the office created unruly scenes, including stone pelting, when names of their leaders did not figure in the list.
The announcement of the first list in the morning and the second in the evening was received angrily by supporters of candidates who aspired for tickets. The group led by Ramulu Naik, who aspired for ticket from Boath in Adilabad, mobbed TRS leaders who released the first list of 15 candidates in the morning.
The supporters of Muluguri Bixapathi, vice-chairman of Karimnagar Zilla Parishad, hurled stones on the office building as the candidature of Mr. Madhusudhanachary was declared in preference to the former from Parkal.
The crowds supporting Mr. Bixapathi and Takkellapalli Ravinder, an aspirant from Palakurthi in Warangal, staged half naked demonstrations in the office.
The Alair MLA Nagesh said he would decide his future course of action after meeting the TRS chief.
Following is the list of candidates: Adilabad district – Kaveti Sammaiah (Sirpur – SC reserved), Pendur Gopi (Asifabad – ST), Gaddam Arvind Reddy (Mancherial), K. Srihari Rao (Nirmal) and Nallala Odelu (Chennur – SC).
