Huzurabad, Oct.8 (Maxim News): Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) President A. Revanth Reddy said that the Congress party would win the Huzurabad bye-elections with a comfortable majority.
He was addressing a public meeting after Congress candidate & NSUI State President Balamuri Venkat filed his nomination. Senior leaders including Madhu Yashi Goud, T. Jeevan Reddy, D. Sridhar Babu, Ponnam Prabhakar, Shabbir Ali, Geetha Reddy and others took part in the nomination rally and public meeting.
Revanth Reddy said that Venkat was picked as the candidate after serious deliberations. He said that the Congress party never took Huzurabad bye-election lightly and it announced its candidate’s name at the last minute as part of a political strategy.
Stating that Balamuri Venkat was young, energetic and serious on public issues, he said that the Congress party finalised his candidature to send a strong message to the students and youth across the State that it would fight for their rights.
The TPCC chief said that while the TRS and BJP leaders were trying to lure people in Huzurabad by distributing liquor, cash and sarees, the Congress party did its ground-work in the last five months and strengthened its connection with the people.
“Congress party does not have any illicit money to distribute among voters. Our leaders never grabbed lands which we could sell for elections.
We only believed in serving the people and this time too, we picked a candidate Venkat who is directly connected with the people,” he said.
Revanth said that the Congress party was always proved right in selection of candidates. Citing an example, he said Ponnam Prabhakar was given an opportunity to contest Lok Sabha elections in 2009. Despite being a young student leader, Ponnam Prabhakar defeated political giants to win the elections.
