Revanth indicated that the leaders would get their second term in office after completing two years in the first term. However, the complete appointments of nominated posts would be after the conclusion of the Lok Sabha elections.

Informing the decisions to the media, senior party leader Md Ali Shabbir said that they will write a letter to AICC president Mallikarjun Kharge requesting him to allot a Lok Sabha seat from Telangana to Sonia Gandhi. He noted that former prime minister Indira Gandhi was elected from Medak.During the three-hour-long meeting, the party prepared an action plan for the government to pursue the implementation of various schemes including six guarantees — the pre-poll promises of the Congress.

The party has decided to conduct Grama Sabha in every village to identify the beneficiaries of ration cards, domestic gas subsidy, Cheyutha pensions and housing schemes on December 28, coinciding with the grand old party’s formation day. The Grama Sabha will take applications for the schemes under six guarantees.

They have also passed two other resolutions thanking the people of the state, and the party high command.During the meeting, Vikramarka, who also holds the Finance portfolio explained the financial situation of the state, while Irrigation Minister N Uttam Kumar Reddy explained the status of the ongoing projects.  

The council of ministers informed the PAC that they would be releasing white papers on the status of state finances, irrigation and energy sectors. The PAC has also decided to appoint a minister as the in-charge of each Lok Sabha segment as part of the preparations for the 2024 General Elections. They have also decided to declare the candidates for Lok Sabha elections as early as possible.

He has also informed the PAC members of his government’s approach to “expose” the corruption in various schemes and projects of the former BRS government. Revanth also told them of his inclination to revive the system of in-charge ministers to the districts to implement and monitor the implementation of welfare schemes, according to sources. The TPCC chief said that development should be uniform even in the Assembly segments where the Congress didn’t win.

Additionally, Shabbir said that they have decided on the dates of implementing the six guarantees and would announce them in the ongoing Assembly session. He also said that they would declare the candidates for Lok Sabha segments after Sankranti. Meanwhile, some of the ministers were absent from the meeting owing to other official engagements.
