In the board room, Mr Keshava Reddy, Mr J. Maheswar Reddy, Ms Anita Prabhakar and Ms P. Bhagyashree were the ones who voted ‘for’ the motion, and whereas, Mr Rama Krishna, Mr K. Pandu Rangam Yadav, Mr J Lokanadham and Ms P. Nalini Kiran voted ‘against’ the motion, eventually leading to the victory of the incumbent vice president. Mr Rama Krishna assured everyone that with the help of the members of the board, he would work on the issues which resulted in the no confidence motion.
