- Jeevan Reddy joins Ramadan prayers with BRS leaders, fuels speculation
- Congress leader’s dissatisfaction and party shift rumours gain traction
Hyderabad, March 21: Senior Congress leader Jeevan Reddy has triggered fresh political speculation after he was seen attending Ramadan prayers along with BRS leaders. The development has intensified ongoing rumours about his possible shift from the Congress party.
The incident took place on the occasion of Ramadan, when Jeevan Reddy appeared alongside BRS leaders, including former ZP chairperson Dava Vasantha, and their supporters. He was also seen interacting warmly with them. This has become a major talking point in political circles. Observers are now debating whether it was merely a festive gathering or a signal of a larger political move.
Meanwhile, dissatisfaction within the Congress appears to be a key factor behind the speculation. Ever since Jagtial MLA Sanjay Kumar joined the Congress, Jeevan Reddy has reportedly been unhappy. He has expressed concerns to close associates that he is not receiving due importance in the party. He also feels that leaders who recently joined are being given more priority than those who have remained loyal for decades.
Over the past few months, Jeevan Reddy has stayed away from party activities. He has also openly voiced his displeasure. In a significant development, Congress flex banners were removed from his residence, further indicating a possible exit. These actions have strengthened the belief that a political shift is imminent.
Later, Jeevan Reddy held discussions with his supporters regarding his political future. He stated that he would announce his decision officially after the Ugadi festival. Therefore, the coming days are likely to be crucial for his next move.
If Jeevan Reddy joins the BRS, political analysts believe it could deal a serious blow to the Congress in the undivided Karimnagar district. However, until an official announcement is made, the situation remains uncertain.
