The ruling YSR Congress party in Andhra Pradesh on Monday March 09,2020 announced
the candidature of Reliance Industries Limited group president of
corporate affairs Parimal D Nathwani for the Rajya Sabha elections from
the state
An official spokesman from the chief minister’s office said YSRC president and chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy finalised the names of four candidates for the Rajya Sabha elections, notification for which was issued on March 6. The last date for filing of nominations is March 13,2020
Apart from Nathwani, the YSRC announced the names of deputy chief minister Pilli Subhash Chandra Bose, minister Mopidevi Venkataramana and prominent industrialist-turned-politician Alla Ayodhya Rami Reddy of Ramky Group of Industries
Bose and Venkataramana are presently members of the legislative council which is likely to get abolished soon as per the resolution passed by the state assembly recently and Jagan has assured them that he will nominate them to the Rajya Sabha
On the other hand, Ayodhya Rami Reddy was also promised the RS seat, after he opted out of the race for the Narsaraopet Lok Sabha seat in favour of Lavu Srikrishna Devarayalu in 2019 general elections, YSRC general secretary and parliamentary party leader V Vijay Sai Reddy told
In all, elections will be held for four RS seats in Andhra Pradesh that are falling vacant due to expiry of term of four MPs – M A Khan, T Subbarami Reddy (both Congress), K Kesava Rao (Telangana Rashtra Samithi) and Thota Sita Ramalakshmi (Telugu Desam Party)
Since the YSRC has huge majority in the state assembly with 151 out of the total number of 175 MLAs, it can easily win all the four seats. The TDP which has only 23 MLAs in the assembly has no chance of putting up any candidates. So, all the four YSRC candidates are most likely to get elected unanimously.
