*From Investigative Journalism to State-Level Leadership: Akash Kolluru Takes Charge as TRS Social and Digital Media State President*

*HYDERABAD:* The Telangana Rakshana Sena (TRS) has announced a significant structural strengthening of its digital and communication apparatus, appointing former senior journalist and National Spokesperson Akash Kolluru as the State President of the TRS Social and Digital Media wing.

This latest appointment marks another major milestone in Kolluru’s journey within the party. Having previously built a distinguished career across prominent national media networks including India Today, CNN-News18, Republic TV, and the Dailyhunt media group. His early investigative work spanning over 15 major exposés and reports cited in Supreme Court affidavits established his reputation for institutional rigor. Shortly after joining the TRS, he was appointed as the party's National Spokesperson, and he now steps into the state-level leadership of the social & digital media apparatus.

Crucially, Kolluru’s elevation highlights a defining ethos of Party Chief Kalvakuntla Kavitha’s leadership: a deliberate shift away from traditional politics and money-power. By placing deep trust in young, merit-driven professionals who come from ordinary backgrounds without legacy political lineages or heavy financial backing, Kavitha is actively dismantling traditional political barriers. Her approach proves that substantive talent, grassroots commitment, and professional expertise are the true currency of modern leadership in the party.

Stepping into his new role as State President for Social and Digital Media, Kolluru will lead a robust team of strategists, including General Secretary Sandeep Bellampally and Joint Secretaries Kolakani Manohar, Teja Chowdary, Kavitha Meru, and Palem Nisha. Under his leadership, the wing is set to modernize political communication, amplify grassroots people's issues, and drive data-backed public discourse.
