BRS leaders Bhima Sridhar, Ravi Rambabu and Durga Prasad played a key role in moving the no-confidence motion with an eye on the chairperson seat. The dissident councillors alleged that Seethalakshmi was making unilateral decisions about development works in their municipal wards and was not consulting the Councillors in allotting the work tenders.
The support of 22 councillors was required if the Chairperson wanted to win the floor test. It was unlikely to happen given the change of loyalty by the councillors. The strength of the Kothagudem municipal council was 36. meanwhile, congress leaders were planning to move the councillors to a camp outside Telangana. (Maxim News)
