In a sensational incident, Kurnool zilla parishad chairperson Malkireddy Venkata Subba Reddy has resigned from his post. He said he was vexed with the groupism among the YSRCP MLAs. He said that he was unable to function due to the intense groupism and has forwarded his resignation to district collector Koteswara Rao.
It may be recalled that the ZP chairperson’s post has become very controversial in Kurnool. The YSRCP wanted to make senior leader Errabotula Venkat Reddy as the ZP chief. However, Reddy died soon after winning the ZPTC post. As a stop-gap arrangement, Malkireddy Venkata Subba Reddy was made the ZP chief. However, he was never allowed to function properly. Panyam MLA Katasani Rambhupal Reddy has always been rooting for Errabotula Venkat Reddy’s son Papireddy, who had won in the bye-elections.
The pro-Papireddy group was bringing pressure on Venkata Subba Reddy to resign. They wanted to make Papireddy the ZP chief. Due to the pressure, Venkata Subba Reddy resigned from his post. Sources say that Malkireddy had tried to meet YS Jagan Mohan Reddy to plead for his continuance. However, he did not get an appointment. Hence he has decided to resign.
Venkata Subba Reddy has complained that despite working hard for the party, he was not allowed to be the ZP chief for at least one year. He is now trying to lobby for some nominated post so that there will be some face-saver for him.
