KCR’s Daughter Files Nomination for Another Term as MLC

Telangana Chief Minister K.Chandrasekhar Rao’s daughter K. Kavitha on Tuesday filed nomination for the second term as a member of the state Legislative Council.

The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) leader and former MP filed her papers from Nizamabad and Kamareddy local bodies’ constituency.

Accompanied by public representatives belonging to the ruling party and other leaders, Kavitha filed her nomination at Nizamabad district collector’s office.

Later talking to reporters, Kavitha thanked TRS and Chandrasekhar Rao for nominating her for another term as MLC.

Kavitha noted that every Assembly constituency in the two districts are represented by TRS MLAs and 90 per cent of public representatives of local bodies belong to the TRS.

She hoped that the public representatives would once again elect her with a huge majority.

The only woman from Chandrasekhar Rao’s family in politics, she was elected to the Legislative Council in October last year. The election was held to fill the vacancy caused by the disqualification of a legislator after he switched loyalties to the Congress party before the 2018 Assembly elections.
