Is Revanth Powerful than YSR in Congress?
Working from the High Command Model is the congress Party. The party frequently attempts to reduce the number of Regional Leaders, even in places where they are powerful, in order to preserve their influence. The last tallest leader congress had in both telugu States was YS Rajasekhara Reddy. He played a key role in using a Padayatra to bring congress to power. Even while ysr was largely allowed free reign, the congress High Command always made an effort to limit his stature by appointing popular individuals to PCC President positions.
As PCC Presidents, d srinivas and Botsa Satyanarayana were formerly influential figures in Congress. congress denied Jagan's attempt to succeed his father following the ysr era, and the rest is history. The party would not even permit extreme policies and new populist plans like HYDRAA, which gives Chief Ministers new personal identities. That's the reason jagan was denied permission to go on the Odarpu yatra in the past. Though they held significant positions, leaders like Rosaiah, kiran kumar Reddy, and ponnala lakshmaiah were by no means well-known. After ysr, revanth reddy was the first prominent congress politician in telangana and AP.
Revanth was chosen by congress as the Chief Minister, against the aspirations of several senior party officials. They thought the High Command would at the very least reduce his stature, but that isn't happening either. revanth Reddy's unrestricted access in HYDRAA Demolitions is evidence of such. revanth reddy even destroyed the homes of a few Congressmen and their kin who have strong ties to the party High Command. The selection of the PCC President is yet another sign.
B The PCC President is announced as Mahesh Kumar Goud. Many Seniors were hoping to acquire it, but revanth Reddy's supporter was chosen by the High Command. This indicates that the party's top command wants to allow revanth reddy more freedom and is not interested in developing new power centers. It is something that ysr in congress did not even experience. This begs the question: Does revanth reddy have greater influence in congress than YSR?
