Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy once again showcased his trademark charisma and public connect at the Ramoji Excellence Awards held in Hyderabad today. During his address, he entertained the audience with a witty and memorable incident from his early political days—an interaction he had with the late media baron Ramoji Rao during the 2009 united Andhra Pradesh elections.
Recounting the episode, Revanth Reddy said he had met Ramoji Rao ahead of the 2009 election results, hoping that the TDP would form the government and that he might secure a cabinet ministry post.
“Back in 2009, there was a buzz that Chandrababu Garu would give cabinet berths to those recommended by Ramoji Garu. So, I went along with four colleagues from Andhra Pradesh to meet him. Somehow, without us even explaining our purpose, he instantly understood why we came,” Revanth said.
He added that Ramoji Rao gently corrected them, saying he had never recommended anyone for a cabinet position. Instead, Ramoji gave them valuable guidance, advising that politicians often shine brighter as MLAs than as ministers, encouraging them to focus on serving people directly.
The irony, Revanth noted, is that while he once sought Ramoji’s recommendation to become a minister—and was a close follower of Chandrababu Naidu at the time—destiny had different plans. He eventually rose to become the Chief Minister, without ever serving as a cabinet minister first.
