KCR was hospitalized on Thursday
K Chandrashekar Rao, the former chief minister of Telangana, was hospitalized on Thursday after he tripped and collapsed. KCR was rushed to Yashoda hospital in Hyderabad after suffering a fall at his Erravalli farmhouse, according to news agency. The chief of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has been admitted to Hyderabad’s Yashoda Hospital.
The chief of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has been admitted to Hyderabad’s Yashoda Hospital. The 69-year-old president of BRS had his condition assessed by medical professionals. KCR will need a left hip replacement, and the hospital said in an official statement that he would likely recover in six to eight weeks.
After tripping and falling in his home’s bathroom, K Chandrashekhar Rao Garu was taken to Yashoda Hospital. According to news agency, KCR was thought to have a fracture and possibly need surgery. Rao had been visiting both common people and party leaders while residing at his property close to Hyderabad.
The Congress deposed the BRS, which was led by K Chandrashekhar Rao, in the just-completed Telangana assembly elections, despite their hopes of winning a hat-trick. Of the 119 members of the House, the Congress won 64 seats. BRS secured 39 seats. A Revanth Reddy, the leader of the Congress legislature party, was sworn in as the state’s chief minister on Thursday.
Leading Congressmen, including as Mallikarjun Kharge and Sonia Gandhi, were present at the event. After examination, which included CT scans, it was discovered that he had an extracapsular neck of femur fracture in his left hip. “A multidisciplinary team comprising orthopaedic, anesthesiology, general medicine, and pain medicine is continuously monitoring him.
In overall, he is doing well. Yashoda Hospital stated that it will occasionally provide an update on his health status. In an X platform post, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wished for KCR’s speedy recovery. “I’m sorry to hear that former Telangana chief minister Shri KCR Garu is hurt. I hope he heals quickly and stays healthy,” wrote PM Modi.
Meanwhile, KCR is receiving specialist care and has a minor injury, according to BRS party head Kavitha Kalvakuntla. Recently, the Telangana Assembly elections were held, and KCR’s BRS party lost to Congress. KCR began his political career as an ordinary member of the Indian Youth Congress. He hails from the village of Chintamadaka in the Medak district.
Film legend N T Rama Rao formed the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), which Rao joined in 1983. Despite the fact that the Congress candidate in Siddipet defeated him in his first attempt at running for office that same year, he won in 1985 and continued his winning streak. In five Lok Sabha elections, including two by-polls, Rao won the seats in Karimnagar, Medak, and Mahbubnagar.
Rao held the position of deputy speaker of the Andhra Pradesh Assembly in addition to serving as a minister in the governments of his son-in-law, N Chandrababu Naidu, and NTR. Due to Naidu’s anti-Telangana sentiment, he led a breakaway Telangana movement and left the TDP in 2001.
His establishment of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) sparked the statehood movement, which had lain dormant since the late 1960s. He aligned himself with the Congress and promised Telangana statehood when he ran with them in the 2004 Lok Sabha elections.
After winning five seats and rising to the position of cabinet minister at the Center, Rao finally broke with the Congress, claiming it had not been sincere in forming Telangana. Following the TDP’s “unconditional support” vow for Telangana’s creation, the TRS partnered with them in the 2009 assembly elections.
In the united state of Andhra Pradesh, Congress and the TDP ruled the political scene, but Rao’s unwavering pursuit of Telangana paid off in the 2014 assembly elections, which resulted in the creation of the new state. As TDP lost support from the public, TRS became the main political force in Telangana.
With Telangana’s creation in 2014 and its subsequent victories in the assembly elections of 2014 and 2018, KCR first rose to prominence. But from winning 88 seats in 2018 to only 39 seats this time around, his party’s performance was disastrous. In 2023, 37% of votes were cast for BRS.
