The Congress party will trounce the ruling TRS in the next Assembly elections likely to be held in April 2023 and form the government in Telangana by bagging 90 Assembly seats to get the State rid of the “corruption-ridden” regime, said Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A. Revanth Reddy.
“The Congress party will not tolerate even the shadow of the corruption-ridden persons at the helm in Telangana, who earned notoriety for their acts of betrayal in 2004 and 2014 besides encouraging defections,” Mr. Reddy told a press conference here late on Monday afternoon.
He was responding to a specific query on the likely impact of the election strategist Prashant Kishor’s marathon consultations with Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao in the last two days amidst speculations over the political consultant’s reported proposal to join the Congress party on the political equations in the State.
