Hyderabad: BRS chief and former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao announced a key role for Jeevan Reddy and asserted that the party would return to power with “100 per cent certainty.”
Addressing a public meeting in Jagtial, KCR criticised the Congress government and described its rule as ineffective. At the same time, he said growing public support indicated a shift in political momentum. With Jeevan Reddy’s entry, he added, the party had gained renewed energy and wider reach.
Accordingly, KCR appointed Jeevan Reddy as BRS general secretary and assigned him responsibilities across Telangana. He also said the party would offer him a major position after forming the next government.

Meanwhile, KCR said internal assessments pointed to a wider impact of Jeevan Reddy’s entry. He noted that its influence would extend beyond Jagtial to constituencies such as Choppadandi, Dharmapuri, Metpally, and Korutla. As a result, he said the development had strengthened the party’s position in several regions.
Recalling past decisions, KCR said he sanctioned Rs 80 crore for a bridge at Bornapalli after Jeevan Reddy raised the demand. In doing so, he highlighted the latter’s commitment to regional development and public needs.
Further, KCR described Jeevan Reddy as an experienced leader who had served as MLA and minister. He added that the leader built support beyond a single constituency and maintained credibility among voters.
In addition, KCR said both leaders had shared a long association of over four decades despite political differences. He noted that Jeevan Reddy consistently worked for public causes and regional development across roles.
Quoting poet Alishetty Prabhakar, KCR said courage could transform individuals into a strong collective force. At the same time, he pointed to the large turnout at the meeting as evidence of growing confidence in the party.
