Revanth ‘pulls up’ MLAs over lack of interest in graduate MLC polls
Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has expressed dissatisfaction with party MLAs regarding their lack of engagement in the upcoming graduate MLC election preparations. He emphasized the need for active voter mobilization to counter the BJP's influence among educated voters.
Why it matters
The outcome of these elections is seen as a critical test for the Congress party's political narrative and support base in Telangana.
Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, who was busy with the Congress leadership on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in New Delhi on Tuesday, took out time to review the Graduates MLC preparations along with TPCC president Mahesh Kumar Goud, Ministers and MLAs - who were also in the national capital.
Mr. Reddy revealed that the Congress party’s protests on SIR protests had caught the nation’s eye, including the educated section in Telangana, who realised the deliberate deletion of votes by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and its danger to democracy.
The educated section is looking for an opportunity to teach the ‘BJP/BRS’ combine a lesson, but the Congress party has to step the enrolment process and mobilisation, he told the party leaders.
