Finally, Joginapally Santosh Kumar, the TRS General secretary has been rewarded by CM KChandrasekhar Rao for sincerity and loyalty as the RS member. His name was announced by the TRS chief today at Telangana Bhavan.
Santosh is a go-getter for KCR and he is there with him all the time in the thick and thin.
Santhosh -Santanna or Santhosh Rao is the fourth member after KTR the IT Minister, Kavithamma the MP, Harish Rao the Minister for Irrigation. Santhosh is KCR’s wife’s sister-son and a trust worthy soldier for KCR.
Santhosh was born in Choppadandi constituency in erstwhile Karimnagar district into an agriculture family on 7th December 1976. Kumar later moved to Hyderabad for pursuing Intermediate and Degree after studying up to SSC in Karimnagar. Later Santosh completed his MBA from Pune University. KCR calls him Are Santu”- with all love and affection.
If the order of precedence for being dependent and powerful in Telangana Rashtra Samithi, the party cadre believes that after KCR, Santhosh or Santanna has the upper hand. He is known to be cordial with all the age groups in the party and is the shadow of KCR. He is here there and everywhere and wherever KCR needs him. From 5 am in the morning to early hours next day he can stay there for the boss and the work is done.
Never say no- has been the attitude of Santosh Kumar. His habit is to hear more talk less and deliver the things ordered by KCR.
The who’s who reach out to Santhosh if they need to convey any information or message to KCR . He never worked or aspired for the sake of positions or recognition but worked as a disciple of KCR with all the humility and sincerity.
Santosh walked in the footsteps of KCR for more than 16 years. Santhosh not only succeeded in gaining the trust of the TRS supremo but also proved his mettle with the party cadre and the people in general. Santosh knows all the media barons and representatives by name.
After completing his education Santosh started working as personal assistant to KCR. He was later elevated to the post of MD , T-news . He was in the company of KTR also while they were doing MBA.
Recently Santhosh was rewarded with the responsibility of party general secretary. Now he will be co-ordinating all the works of KCR at Delhi .
Santosh is a friend of all in the family and also with the party cadres. He has helped a lot of people knowingly and unknowingly, but never took the credit. Patience has been his hallmark all the way.
Santosh is bound to reach greater heights in the near future.
