Kodandaram, Professor in Osmania University played stellar role in coordinating with the students and politicians as a Chairman of T-JAC during the heat of Telangana movement and guiding them towards the goal of achieving Telangna state.
However after the formation of Telangana, Kodandaram unlike many of his colleagues did not enter politics but returned back to his profession. However of late he has been participating in various functions and programs and started criticizing TRS Govt and CM KCR over their failure on solving many problems.
It is coming out that T CM KCR offered a plump post to Kodandaram but he rejected it outright. In the meantime CPM is trying to convince him to field him as the party candidate from graduate constituency in MLC elections.
Sources indicate that CPM Telangana Secretary Tammineni Veerabhadram met Kodandaram and came with the proposal. However Kodandaram did not show interest. CPM leaders say they are ready to field him if he gives green signal.
