PaperDabba News Desk – [Date] The allocation of vacant nominated posts in various state government departments has become a point of contention within the TDP coalition. Recent orders from the General Administration Department have set the stage for a series of negotiations among the coalition partners.
Discussion on Nominee Posts
TDP, BJP, and Jana Sena are engaged in discussions over the distribution of nominated posts within the coalition. The General Administration Department has recently issued directives to provide details of vacant positions in various government departments by Monday morning. This includes vacancies in societies and special bodies, raising the stakes for an equitable distribution among the coalition partners.
Significant Vacancies
There are approximately 95 vacant corporation chairman posts, which are highly sought after. Reports suggest that Jana Sena is eyeing around 25 of these positions. The exact allocation for Jana Sena and BJP remains uncertain, fueling anticipation and negotiations within the coalition.
Historical Context
During the 2014-19 TDP government tenure, BJP and Jana Sena did not receive any corporation chairman posts. Since Jana Sena did not directly contest in the elections at that time, this issue did not arise. However, the current scenario is different, with both parties having significant expectations from the coalition.
Internal Dynamics
TDP has many hopefuls vying for these nominated posts, including former ministers and senior leaders. With only five MLC posts expected to become vacant next year, the competition is intense. The party plans to allocate posts based on internal rankings, considering the contributions of members during their time in the opposition.
Scrutiny Process
The applications from hopefuls are being scrutinized by TDP General Secretary Nara Lokesh. The final decision, however, rests with the party leader Chandrababu Naidu, who will make the ultimate call on the allocations.
In conclusion, the allocation of nominated posts within the TDP coalition is a critical issue that could impact the coalition’s stability. The negotiations and final decisions will reflect the internal dynamics and priorities of the coalition partners.
