Also, former PCC president N Uttamkumar Reddy was re-allotted Huzurnagar ticket and Kodada ticket went to his wife Padmavathi Reddy.
Former minister and senior leader Kunduru Jana Reddy decided not to contest and as per his wish, the party allotted the Nagarjunasagar ticket to his son Kunduru Jaiveer Reddy. Nakirekal assembly ticket has been allotted to former MLA Vemula Veeresham, who recently shifted his loyalty to the Congress party, and the Aleru ticket was allocated to Birla Ailaiah.
With this, candidates have been finalised for six out of 12 seats in the erstwhile Nalgonda district.

With the allotment of seats, the candidates will first need to appease those who were in contention for their tickets. Meanwhile, efforts are underway for consensus on Bhongir, Suryapet, Tungaturthi and Devarakonda seats.
