In a significant setback for the Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) party, Gutta Amit, son of Legislative Council Chairman Gutta Sukhender Reddy, has joined the Congress. This move is likely to have a substantial impact on the BRS’s standing in the Nalgonda district, particularly in light of Mr. Sukhender Reddy’s previous affiliation with the Congress and his recent criticism of the BRS. The entry of Mr. Amit into the Congress is seen as a significant blow to the BRS, especially considering his father’s position and their strained relationship with former Minister G. Jagadish Reddy.
