The deliberations in Hyderabad over the nomination of two MLC seats under the Governor’s quota have sparked fears of friction between Raj Bhavan and Pragati Bhavan.
The delay has generated concern since the KCR government’s recommended names, D Shravan and K Satnarayana, await clearance from the governor for these reserved seats. According to sources, the government’s nominations did not correspond to the required areas for nominations under the Governor’s quota, which typically focus on education, literature, and public service efforts.
A precedent is Governor Soundararajan’s prior refusal to approve a nomination owing to pending legal issues against the nominee. This situation calls into question the classification of D Shravan and K Satnarayana, both of whom hold positions of political leadership.
The inability of the administration to designate the suitable social services category for the nominees has resulted in a stalemate. As the uncertainty increases, speculation about various outcomes abounds, including whether the governor will reject the appointments or seek legal counsel.
The governor has the authority to ask the administration for clarification on the fitness of nominees within the stated category. Despite the fact that the nomination has been submitted for three weeks, no decision has been made. The excitement is palpable since D Shravan represents the BC group and Satnarayana is from the ST community.
This circumstance is reminiscent of KCR’s previous attempt to seat a nominee in the legislative council using the MLC quota, which attracted protests from the governor and resulted in a different nomination method.
As the delay persists, political observers are concerned about the impact of the approaching decision on the relationship between the state administration and the governor’s office.
