Telangana council to hold budget session without a chairman this time?

Update: 2022-02-22 12:09 GMT
Is KCR further delaying the election of the chairperson and the deputy chair persons to the Legislative council in Telangana? Is he planning to conduct the budget session of the council without a proper chairperson? Will the protem speaker do the honours pending the election of the chairperson and deputy chairperson?

Yes, affirm the political watchers and the TRS insiders.  The budget session of the council would be notified in about 10 days. But the election of the chairperson and the deputy chairperson of the council is pending.

There is no possibility of  the election being conducted now. So, the pro-tem speaker will conduct the meeting instead of a regular chairperson.

MIM MLC and senior journalist Syed Ameen Jaffry is currently the pro-tem speaker by virtue of his age.  The term of chairperson Gutta Sukhender Reddy ended on June 3 last year.

The term of deputy chairperson Neti Vidya Sagar ended on January 4 this year.  However, though both have since been renominated to the council , the election could not be held due to the Covid situation.

Meanwhile, there are reports that Rajya Sabha MP Banda Prakash, who was made the member of the legislative committee, would be made the deputy chairperson in place of Neti Vidyasagar. Gutta is likely to continue as the chairperson of the legislative council.
