There are three senior leaders in the race for the post. According to sources, the State government may opt for the former chairman Gutha Sukhender Reddy. However, others in the race are Kadiam Srihari and S Madhusudhana Chary, former Assembly Speaker. Reports said that AIMIM was pushing for the Deputy Chairman's post. TRS working president KT Rama Rao and MIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi discussed the issue on Saturday.
