The proposal to appoint Pawan Kalyan as the floor leader was made by Janasena's Tenali legislator, N. Manohar, and received unanimous support from other party members, according to party sources. With 21 legislators in the 175-member Assembly, Janasena plays a pivotal role in the state's political landscape.
