Congress Leaders Clash Over TPCC Working Presidents
Meenakshi Natarajan, a leader in the Congress party, is upset with some leaders in Telangana.
They are arguing about who should get important jobs in the party.
Meenakshi wants to follow the party's rules, but some leaders want to give jobs to their friends who already have jobs.
This is causing a delay in making decisions.
The party usually has five leaders helping the main leader, but now they want to reduce it to four.
These leaders should come from different groups in society, like different castes and religions.
Meenakshi says she might leave if the party doesn't follow the rules.
Meenakshi Natarajan is unhappy with some Telangana Congress leaders over the selection of TPCC working presidents.
The party is finalizing four working president posts, one each for OC, SC, ST, and Minority categories.
Natarajan opposes a senior leader's recommendation for a candidate and has communicated her stance to the party high command.
The disagreement is causing a delay in announcing the working presidents and other vacant party posts.
Natarajan is insisting on the party's 'one leader, one position' policy, while some state leaders are trying to secure multiple positions for their supporters.
