The exercise to find a new trust board chairman has already begun and several names of the YSRC party leaders are also coming up for discussion in the party circles.
According to the media reports, Jagan is considering the name of Tirupati MLA Bhumana Karunakar Reddy as the new TTD trust board chairman.
Bhumana had earlier held this post during the regime of Jagan’s father and former chief minister late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy.
Another name that is doing rounds in the social media is that of Chandragiri MLA and board member Chevireddy Bhaskar Reddy, who is also a staunch loyalist of Jagan and an ardent devotee of Lord Venkateshwara.
The name of Chevi Reddy was recommended by Jeeyar Swamy it is learnt.
However, the chief minister is apprehensive that if the post is given to another Reddy, it might lead to criticism from various quarters. So, he might prefer a BC leader for the post.
In such a case, it could be given to senior party MLC and whip Janga Krishna Murthy from Gurajala in Palnadu district.
The chief minister might also do away with the appointment of special invitees for the TTD trust board as he had done last time.
