TRS leaders asked the Central Election Commission to recognize TRS as BRS. Vinod Kumar’s team handed over a copy of the resolution to the authorities. The leaders asked to approve the name change. TRS sources stated that there are many lawyers and party leaders in this group.
Vinod spoke to the media after meeting the officials. He said that it is clear in Section 29A(9) of the People’s Representative Act that any party should inform the Election Commission if the name and address of the party are changed. That’s why they said that they met EC immediately without wasting time. He said that the rest of the matters will be followed by the election rules.
CM KCR changed Telangana Rashtra Samithi to Bharat Rashtra Samithi. A resolution to this effect was passed on Wednesday. The resolution was handed over to Vinod’s team and sent to Delhi. The group appealed to the EC to approve the change of name in this program itself. If the Election Commission approves this, TRS will officially become the BRS party.
