Former Minister Malla Reddy to Join Congress?

Speculation is gaining momentum in Telangana political circles that Medchal BRS MLA and former minister Malla Reddy may join the Congress. However, there has been no fresh official confirmation from Malla Reddy regarding the reported move. Similar speculation surfaced earlier as well, but in July 2026, Malla Reddy reportedly clarified that he would continue with the BRS and had no plans to join another party.

According to the latest political buzz, efforts are allegedly underway for Malla Reddy to join the Congress, with discussions reportedly taking place with Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar. There is also speculation that a possible induction could take place in the presence of AICC General Secretary KC Venugopal. However, neither Malla Reddy nor the Congress has officially confirmed the reported development so far. The latest speculation comes amid ongoing political discussions within the Telangana Congress leadership and its high command.
