The move came ahead of NDA legislators’ meeting to elect TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu as their leader in the House.
Janasena Tenali legislator N Manohar proposed Pawan Kalyan’s name as the floor leader in the Assembly, which was unanimously supported by other members, the party sources said.
Janasena holds 21 seats in the 175-member Assembly. During the recent elections, the NDA secured a landslide victory in Andhra Pradesh, capturing a majority of 164 assembly seats.
