Hyderabad, December 11, 2023: Following the BJP’s triumph in securing 8 seats in the recent Telangana assembly elections, discussions are underway within the BJP leadership regarding the selection of the party’s floor leader in the House.
Among the 8 elected MLAs, Raja Singh emerges as the senior legislator representing the Goshamahal assembly constituency. Interestingly, he is the sole sitting MLA who emerged victorious, as all other senior party leaders including Bandi Sanjay Kumar, Etala Rajender, D Arvind, and Raghunandan Rao faced defeat in the elections.
With the BJP introducing six first-time MLAs to the assembly, the crucial question arises – who will lead the party on the floor of the House? Reports suggest that apart from Raja Singh, two other MLAs, Alleti Maheswar Reddy (Nirmal) and K Venkata Rama Reddy (notably defeating two chief ministers KCR and Revanth Reddy in Kamareddy), are frontrunners for the legislative post.
Despite Raja Singh’s seniority, concerns loom over his lack of command over the Telugu language and limited understanding of the state’s issues, potentially hindering his chances of becoming the floor leader. The BJP might consider Venkata Rama Reddy, given his working knowledge of the people’s problems and his previous affiliation with the Congress before joining the BJP ahead of the Telangana assembly elections.
Venkata Rama Reddy, known as the ‘giant killer,’ enjoys popularity for his adeptness in chaste Telugu and strong connections with his constituency in Nizamabad district. However, being a first-time MLA, he lacks experience in legislative proceedings, posing a potential downside to his candidacy.
The deliberations within the BJP leadership underscore the balancing act between experience and a deeper understanding of the state’s issues as they decide on the party’s representation on the floor of the Telangana Assembly.

Expressing their disapproval, Congress leader and Warangal District Congress Committee (DCC) president Errabelli Swarna took exception to Ponnala’s remark after the chief minister’s courtesy visit to the BRS party chief.
“As a senior party leader, it does not behoove you to make such a derisive remark about the chief minister. The comment proves that you have no respect for the elected representative. We will not keep quiet if you repeat it in the future,” Errabelli Swarna stated, highlighting the party’s stance against such remarks.

Senior Congress leader and Maharaja Hari Singh’s son, Karan Singh, offered advice to a section of people in J&K who might not be happy with the judgment. He suggested accepting the inevitable and focusing on the next elections rather than developing negativity.

On Monday, the Supreme Court of India upheld the Union government’s decision to abrogate Article 370 of the Constitution, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir. The verdict, delivered by a five-judge Constitution bench led by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, affirmed the legality of the government’s action.
Prime Minister Modi Applauds Decision
Prime Minister Narendra Modi took to the social media platform X to applaud the Supreme Court’s decision. He characterized it as a “beacon of hope, a promise of a brighter future, and a testament to our collective resolve to build a stronger, more united India.” According to the PM, the ruling represents a “resounding declaration of hope, progress, and unity” for the people of Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh.
Article 370: Temporary Provision
Chief Justice Chandrachud, while reading the judgment, underscored that Article 370 was a temporary provision, designed as an interim arrangement until the J&K Constituent Assembly could ratify the Indian Constitution. He emphasized that challenging every decision made by the Centre on behalf of a state could bring the administration to a standstill.
Presidential Rule and Irreversible Actions
The apex court dismissed the argument that the Union government couldn’t take irreversible actions in the state during Presidential rule. The court reasoned that Jammu and Kashmir did not retain sovereignty when it joined the Union of India.
Article 370: Constitutional Integration
The court affirmed that Article 370 was intended for the constitutional integration of Jammu and Kashmir with the Union, not for disintegration. It ruled that the President could declare Article 370’s cessation, and the concurrence of the state government was not required for applying all provisions of the Constitution under Article 370(1)(d).
Election Commission Directive
The Supreme Court directed the Election Commission to conduct Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections by September 30, 2024. In light of the Centre’s commitment to restoring statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, the court instructed that statehood should be reinstated as soon as possible.
16 Days of Hearings Conclude
After 16 days of hearings, the Supreme Court reserved its judgment on September 5. The central government, represented by Attorney General R Venkataramani and Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, defended its decision to abrogate Article 370, asserting there was no “constitutional fraud” in repealing the provision that accorded special status to the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir.
Argument and Counter-Argument
Senior advocate Kapil Sibal, representing the petitioners, contended that Article 370 was no longer a temporary provision and had assumed permanence post the dissolution of the Constituent Assembly of Jammu and Kashmir. He argued that Parliament could not have declared itself the legislature of J-K to facilitate Article 370’s abrogation, as it wasn’t authorized by Article 354 of the Constitution.
August 5, 2019 Announcement
On August 5, 2019, the Central government had announced the revocation of Jammu and Kashmir’s special status under Article 370 and the bifurcation of the region into two union territories. The recent Supreme Court decision has now cemented the constitutional validity of this significant move.
