KCR ready with candidate list for 80 seats

IF BRS insiders are to be believed, party supremo and Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has more or less finalised the candidates for 80-90 assembly segments in the state and the process of fine-tuning the full and final list is on.

Sources said that a meeting was convened by Rao at his farmhouse on Saturday with his core team that meticulously sifted through the first list of candidates. Notable attendees included finance minister T Harish Rao, MLC Naveen Rao, and two other prominent figures.

Insiders said that the chief minister is expected to announce the names of 80 to 90 candidates in the first list, most likely after August 17. The selection process for candidatures has involved an extensive series of surveys conducted by both the BRS and third-party agencies, culminating in the party chief's final decision.
