TRS president KCR has earlier prepared to merge his party into Congress on a condition of granting Telangana state. When, he inducted Congress leader K.Keshav rao into TRS and appointed him as Secretary General of the party, the general belief is that he is particularly assigned to negotiate with Congress high command over merging terms and conditions. But, after his entry into party, now KCR not only changed his mind and retrieves from his words but also talking about taking active part in reconstruction of the new state. Is it due to Keshav rao stopping him from merging into Congress? Are the other two  MPs Vivek and Manda Jagannadham, who are afraid to return to Congress fold fearing embarrassment and thus obstructing merger?

If, the TRS merges into Congress then the tickets allotment affair will goes into hands of Congress high command hands. Then they may not get party tickets as the party high command dislikes them for betraying the party.
