G Srinivasa Rao, who served as the Director of Health during K. Chandrashekar Rao's (KCR) tenure as Chief Minister of Telangana, has resigned from his position following the transition of power to the Congress government. Known for his close association with KCR, Srinivasa Rao was recognized and rewarded for his loyalty, despite facing criticism regarding the management of the COVID-19 pandemic. His resignation comes as part of a broader shift in the administration, with the new government making changes in key positions.

During his time with KCR's administration, Srinivasa Rao had sought an MLA ticket from the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), the party led by KCR, but his request was not approved. This disappointment left him unable to fulfill his ambition of becoming a public representative. Despite this setback, Srinivasa Rao continued to be a significant figure within the health sector until the recent political change.

With the Congress government’s approval of his voluntary resignation, Srinivasa Rao is now stepping away from his role in the Telangana government. He has opted for voluntary retirement and is expected to pursue his political aspirations with the BRS. His departure from the Director of Health post marks a new chapter in his career as he navigates the evolving political landscape and seeks to reestablish himself in the political arena.
