In a notable development, the Governor of Telangana, Tamilisai, has smoothly finalized the process of nominating Members of the Legislative Council (MLCs) under the Governor’s quota. Last September, the Governor created waves by rejecting the BRS government’s recommendations for MLC posts, causing a stir in political circles. However, this time around, the MLC nomination procedure has concluded without any hiccups.

Governor Tamilisai has granted approval to the candidature of Professor M Kodandaram, the President of Telangana Jana Samithi, and Amer Ali Khan, the news editor of the Urdu newspaper The Siasat Daily. Both individuals are set to assume the MLC positions under the Governor’s quota.

This decision marks a departure from the previous term, where the Governor rejected the names proposed by BRS, emphasizing the need for a more ‘Gentlemanly’ approach. In contrast, this time, she has swiftly cleared the nomination file sent by the Revanth Reddy-led Congress government, avoiding any disagreements.

Notably, Revanth Reddy had openly declared the party’s intention to confer the MLC post upon Professor Kodandaram, acknowledging his support during the Assembly elections. The Governor’s nod to these nominations underlines a smoother process and a departure from the tensions witnessed in the past, offering a glimpse of cooperative governance in the state.
