The new government headed by Y S Rajasekhara Reddy will be sworn in at a mega public event at L B Stadium on Wednesday evening at 6.30 pm.
This will be after a hectic day of developments in the ruling party on Tuesday, beginning with Rajasekhara Reddy flying to New Delhi in the morning to attend the Congress parliamentary party meeting where prime minister Manmohan Singh is likely to be re-elected the CPP leader. After that, the chief minister is scheduled to fly back to Hyderabad and preside over a cabinet meeting in which a resolution will be passed recommending resignation of the state government.
After submitting the resolution to the governor, the Congress legislature party is to meet on Tuesday evening where YSR would be re-elected the leader. The next day, the swearing-in will take place.
Rajasekhara Reddy, who returned from New Delhi on Monday afternoon, was closeted in his camp office for the rest of the day busy discussing with his aides about the composition of the new council of ministers as apart from the seniors in the present cabinet, there are many new claimants.
It is learnt that four ministers N Raghuveera Reddy, K Jana Reddy, J C Diwakar Reddy and Botsa Satyanarayana are among those who are seeking a change in the portfolio. But the possibility of retaining Jana Reddy as home minister appears to be strong, the sources said. From the council, only K Rosaiah is likely to be taken at this juncture, sources said.
Among the new aspirants from the city are D Nagender and Jayasudha, while existing ministers Mukesh Goud, J Geetha Reddy and Sabita Indira Reddy are expected to be retained. Among the other new aspirants are D K Aruna from Gadwal in Mahabubnagar district. In 2004, she had won on the Samajwadi Party ticket but remained an associate member of the Congress party. Now that she was given Congress ticket and got re-elected, she is also trying for berth in the council. Vatti Vasant Kumar, a trusted lieutenant of the chief minister from East Godavari district is also among the new contenders.
Meanwhile, the chief minister declared that he would keep aside the bitter politics that dominated the state for the last two months and would chant the development mantra for next five years.
Reddy, who was closeted with officials soon after his return from Delhi, told them to sort out the hiccups regarding drinking water supply particularly in areas like Bholakpur. Reddy also directed the officials to ensure that the P V Narasimha Rao express highway was completed on a war footing.
