Moily meets YSR, DS to finalise PCC executive
Hyderabad:

AICC general secretary in-charge of Andhra Pradesh affairs M Veerappa Moily on Tuesday held consulations with chief minister Rajasekhara Reddy and PCC chief D Srinivas on the finalisation of PCC executive.
Moily, who was in Hyderabad to attend the funeral of MIM leader Sultan Salahuddin Owaisi, met the two leaders at the Lake View Guest House in the afternoon.
The finalisation of the PCC list has been hanging fire for quite some time due to lack of consensus on certain names. The differences between the PCC chief and the CM’s camp was said to be the reason for the PCC not being reconstituted for almost five years.
Previous president K Keshava Rao’s attempts to appoint secretaries and chairmen of various cells never met the with success. So, he had to work without secretaries.
Now, Srinivas is trying to fill the posts before the elections. According to sources, he is also finding it difficult to accommodate interests of various leaders
