The AICC concluded the meeting to decide Telangana's next CM. State chief Revanth Reddy seems set for the role after Rahul Gandhi confirmed "The decision has been taken, it was Revanth Reddy." The deliberations at AICC chief Kharge's home involved Venugopal, Thakare and DK Shivakumar. DK Shivakumar will soon fly to Hyderabad with the sealed cover, needing formal approval from Sonia Gandhi before a public announcement likely this evening. Meanwhile, the central observers also finalized cabinet portfolios and deputy CM candidates. MLAs were instructed to gather at a hotel for Assembly protocols and affairs briefing by ex-MP Chinna Reddy ahead of taking over. With Rahul Gandhi explicitly naming him CM, Revanth Reddy looks primed to steer Congress' return to power after toppling KCR.
