Veteran novice: "NALLARI KIRAN KUMAR REDDY never served as a Minister before becoming the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh on November 25.
The 50-year-old stands out in stark contrast to his predecessor Konijeti Rosaiah, who was a veteran in governance and in politics. In what would easily be a record for any State in India, Rosaiah presented as many as 16 budgets as Finance Minister and Chief Minister.
The only notable highlight in Kiran Reddy's political curriculum vitae is his 18-month-long stint as the Speaker of the Andhra Pradesh Assembly. He had also served as the ruling party's Chief Whip earlier. Former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy was obviously pleased with his protege when he picked him up for the post of Speaker."
