Surprisingly, Rajya Sabha member Banda Prakash was also selected for the Council, though he had two more years tenure as RS member. In his place, TRS may send former Assembly Speaker S Madhusudhana Chary to Rajya Sabha.

P Kaushik Reddy’s nomination to Council under Governor’s quota was not cleared by the Raj Bhavan. Thus, the TRS has decided him to send to the Council under MLA’s quota.

However, the TRS not announced the names officially and asked the candidates to file nominations. The candidates filed nominations today, on the last day of filing nominations. All the six TRS candidates will be declared elected after the scrutiny of nominations. No opposition party in the Assembly has the strength to field the candidates.
