Ponguleti Joined Congress to End Corrupt KCR Rule: Bhatti

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: CLP leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka said that former MP Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy was joining the party to end the “corrupt and exploitative rule of KCR” and realise the objectives for which Telangana was formed, by voting the Congress to power. “I could not visit the residence of Srinivas Reddy along with PCC president Revanth Reddy and others as I was in the midst of the padayatra,” Bhatti said. Speaking on the occasion, Srinivas Reddy said, “I congratulate Bhatti for undertaking the yatra over the 100-day period to learn firsthand the plight of people and their hardships under the BRS rule, despite the soaring temperature in the summer. KCR is not someone who fulfils the promises made in his election manifesto.” Asserting that he was not assured of a seat while joining the party, Srinivas Reddy said, “The Congress high command will take a decision on the entry of former Nakrekal MLA Vemula Veeresham into the party fold.” Former minister Ramreddy Damodar Reddy also welcomed Srinivas Reddy into the Congress.
