N. Ramchander Rao Elected Telangana BJP Chief Unopposed
The BJP in Telangana issued the notification for the state president’s election on June 29, with nominations scheduled for June 30 and results set for July 1. Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy emphasized the importance of the process being “unanimous,” expressing that the election should reflect unity within the ranks.
As the deadline for nominations drew to a close, only one candidate senior advocate and former MLC N. Ramchander Rao—filed his papers. With no one else entering the contest, Rao became the lone nominee and was poised to be elected unopposed. This follows normal BJP practice for state-level leadership changes, where a single-nomination scenario essentially equates to a consensus appointment
In summary, yes the election was effectively unanimous. With only one nomination received, N. Ramchander Rao was the sole contender and will be declared president without any voting. This outcome aligns precisely with the party’s intention to choose its state unit leader by consensus
