Kalvakuntla Chandrashekar Rao (KCR), the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) chief, will be sworn in as CM for the second time at the Raj Bhawan here at 1.24 pm tomorrow. The party won 88 of the 119 Assembly seats.

Laxmi Narain Acharya, KCR’s personal priest, told The Tribune that the “auspicious period” would start at 1.24 pm and continue for the next one-and-a-half hours. The Telangana caretaker CM, it is learnt, does not commence any important work without consulting priests and astrologers. 

“Tomorrow afternoon is an auspicious period and I want to take oath then, but it all depends on the gazette notification (declaring TRS the largest single party with majority),” he said. 

He ruled out the possibility of his handing over power to his son KT Rama Rao, who has won from Sircilla.
