New Delhi: Challa Vamshi Chand Reddy is appointed as a All India Congress Committee (AICC) secretary attached with general secretary in-charge organisation with immediate effect.
Telangana Congress leader and AICC secretary Vamshi Chand Reddy has been attached to the office of AICC general secretary KC Venugopal in New Delhi.
Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday approved the new posting with immediate effect, relieving Vamshi as the AICC in charge of Maharashtra.
Vamshi would now be AICC secretary in charge of party’s organisational affairs, a major elevation for a leader from Telangana. His appointment is also being viewed as a step to keep TPCC president A Revanth Reddy in check.
Any file pertaining to appointment of general secretaries and other leaders of PCCS would be routed through Vamshi. His elevation comes ahead of a proposed overhaul of TPCC by its new president, Revanth Reddy.
Several leaders, who opposed the appointment of Revanth, were now hopeful that the TPCC chief’s decisions on organisational matters without consulting the party seniors, would have to go through Vamshi, who is not from Revanth’s camp.
