Deccan ChronicleHyderabad: Just a month ahead of the Lok Sabha elections in Telangana, the Congress appears to have a clear edge in the triangular contest in the combined Nalgonda district. On the back of its stupendous performance in the recent Assembly polls in combined Nalgonda district, the Congress is confident of bagging both Nalgonda and Bhongir Lok Sabha seats with a record majority in Lok Sabha elections scheduled for May 13. The Congress has fielded Kunduru Raghuveer Reddy, the son of veteran Congress leader Kunduru Jana Reddy, from Nalgonda Lok Sabha seat and TPCC vice-president Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy from the Bhongir Lok Sabha seat. The ministers from combined Nalgonda district, N. Uttam Kumar Reddy and Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, who won from Nalgonda and Bhongir Lok seats respectively in 2019 elections, are going all out to repeat the victory of the Congress in both these seats with a huge majority in upcoming Lok Sabha polls. The BJP fielded Sanampudi Saidi Reddy for Nalgonda Lok Sabha seat, the former BRS MLA from Huzurnagar, who lost to Congress in recent Assembly polls, and joined BJP last month.
