I am the most accessible MP: BJP Chevella candidate Konda Vishweshwar Reddy

BJP’s Chevella candidate Konda Viveshwar Reddy is the richest in the fray in these Lok Sabha elections with declared assets of over ₹4,500 crore. He won in 2014 on a BRS ticket, lost in 2019 contesting on the Congress ticket and is now contesting under the saffron flag. He hails from an illustrious family — his grandfather K.V. Ranga Reddy was deputy CM and has a district named after him while his father K. Madhava Reddy was a former Chief Justice. So, Mr. Reddy has a legacy to live up to and in this interview with The Hindu, explains why he should be elected.

How is your campaign going and what is the response?
