A day after defeating KCR's BRS, Telangana's Congress MLAs authorized the party high command to choose their leader. State chief Revanth Reddy proposed the resolution allowing AICC to pick the CM for the state, which 10 MLAs backed. Senior leader DK Shivakumar stated, "AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge will take a call on who should become the Chief Minister." Earlier reports predicted Revanth Reddy was the frontrunner after extensive campaigning, though other heavyweight options like CLP leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka and Ex-state chief Uttam Kumar Reddy also exist. Congress leader V Hanumantha Rao said chances are high for Revanth to become the CM. But the last word rests with the Congress central leadership on who will steer Telangana next after reclaiming power from KCR.
