Just a few weeks after he was appointed as the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee working president, former cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin is rumoured to be desiring to join the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samiti. It's known that he has been angling for the Lok Sabha ticket from Malkajgiri or Secunderabad. With the Congress having been trounced recently, he seems to be thinking that TRS is his future.

As per a daily, an NRI is negotiating with certain heavyweights in the TRS to impress upon regarding Azhar's aspirations. As per the report, KCR is showing interest in him.

It's believed that Azhar first told KCR about his wish when he met him recently at the wedding of Asaduddin Owaisi’s daughter. The former cricketing champ was a parliamentarian in the past.
