Actress Vijayashanti Returns to Politics with Surprise MLC Nomination

NEWS CHARIOT:-The decision to grant a Congress MLC ticket to actress and former MP Vijayashanti has stirred political discussions. Having been inactive in politics for a while, her sudden nomination to the legislative council has raised questions about the party’s strategy behind this move.

There is ongoing debate about whether state leaders recommended her for the position or if she lobbied for the ticket herself. Her re-entry into active politics has caught many by surprise, given her limited involvement in party activities in recent years.

Vijayashanti joined the Congress before the Telangana Assembly elections but remained largely inactive afterward. She rarely attended party meetings at Gandhi Bhavan and did not comment on welfare schemes introduced by the Revanth Reddy government. Due to this, many assumed she had distanced herself from active politics. However, her recent visit to Delhi and meetings with senior party leaders sparked speculation. The unexpected announcement of her MLC ticket left many political observers in shock.

According to sources, AICC leaders personally invited Vijayashanti to Delhi and offered her the position. However, some believe she actively lobbied for the role with the help of a key high-command leader. Initially, there were rumors that she would be appointed as the state government’s official representative in Delhi. However, considering the current political landscape, the Congress leadership instead chose to send her to the legislative council.

Vijayashanti’s experience working with both BRS and BJP is seen as an asset. It is believed that the Congress high command wants her to take on the responsibility of countering both KCR and the BJP in Telangana politics. With her strong public image and past political experience, she could play a crucial role in attacking opposition parties.

Political circles are now buzzing with speculation about whether Vijayashanti’s role will be limited to just an MLC position or if she will be given a more significant role in the future. Many are keenly watching to see if this move is part of a larger political strategy by Congress in Telangana.
