In this regard, the swearing-in ceremony was grandly held in Hyderabad on Thursday. Srisailam Yadav and Jubilee Hills MLA Naveen Yadav attended the event as chief guests. At the event…

Jubilee Hills MLA Naveen Yadav said… “I am happy that for the first time, a woman has been elected as the president of this union. I believe that Sumalatha’s victory will bring a new dimension to the union. Jani Master has earned fame and recognition across the country. Jani Master, who rose from humble beginnings to great heights, and his wife Sumalatha were elected based on the trust placed in them. I will always be indebted to the film workers who treat my family as their own. I will always stand by this union.”

Smt. V. V. Sumalatha Devi said… “My thanks to everyone who contributed to this victory and to everyone who voted. I assure you that I will resolve every problem within the union.”

Speaking, Srisailam Yadav said… “Congratulations to Sumalatha Devi, who won the elections. There are some minor issues in the union. Let’s resolve them among ourselves. Filing cases outside will only make us look bad. Let’s all move forward together. My best wishes to everyone who won in these elections.”

Speaking, prominent producer C. Kalyan said… “Srisailam Yadav was the first to donate money to this organization. He was always at the forefront whenever the film industry faced any difficulties. His son Naveen is a great person. Srisailam’s wife provided financial assistance to many female artists and dancers. Many tried to pull Jani down, but now he has risen to great heights. Sumalatha’s victory will bring good days to this union. On our behalf, we will also provide all kinds of support and cooperation to this union.”

Speaking, Jani Master said… “Thanks to everyone who voted for us and made us win with their trust. As promised, with the cooperation of the winning body, we will work for the welfare of the union. Every member of the union should have health insurance. When I mentioned this to Ram Charan, he immediately provided financial assistance. Thanks to Srisailam Yadav and Naveen Yadav for assuring that every member of the union will get a plot of land. My wish is that when a member of our union retires, we should plan to give them approximately ten to fifteen lakhs at that time.” “I am praying to God that this wish will be fulfilled,” he said.
