After the sudden demise of senior TDP leader and Nandyal MLA Bhuma Nagi Reddy, sources close to party hints that there could be inclusion of Allagadda MLA Bhuma Akhila Priya into state cabinet on behalf of her father from Kurnool district.
Bhuma Nagi Reddy, being a popular leader in Rayalaseema, along with wife Shoba Nagi Reddy joined Chiranjeevi’s Praja Rajyam Party before 2009 elections.
Having won the 2014 election on YSRCP ticket, Bhuma and his family switched loyalties to Telugu Desam and recently, Babu is said to have promised a cabinet berth for him in the coming expansion. The cabinet reshuffling is likely to happen in April month. i.e., after the ongoing state budget sessions.
Now that the popular Rayalaseema leader is no more, his daughter and Allagadda MLA Akhila Priya could get that chance. In this re-shuffling, TDP is expected to bring in few more party members into cabinet including Nara Lokesh. After resolving the rivalry with Shilpa brothers in Kurnool district, Babu reportedly assured a cabinet berth to Bhuma.
Akhila Priya unanimously won from Allagadda assembly constituency after her mother Shoba met with a tragic road accident and passed away before the 2014 polls.
