Telangana politics is likely to go through a huge churning with two big anti-KCR faces, Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy and Jupally Krishna Rao set to announce their association with the Congress party on June 12 and later officially join the party in the presence of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in a public meeting likely to be held on June 25 in Khammam.
The two leaders will meet Mr. Rahul Gandhi on June 21 in New Delhi when he returns to India from his United States visit. The All India Congress Committee (AICC) is directly involved in the joining of the two leaders and coordinating the entire effort though the local leadership has facilitated the talks.
A senior Congress party leader from New Delhi revealed that 7 to 8 leaders with the stature of contesting as MLAs across Telangana will also join the party along with them. These leaders are not just the followers of Mr. Ponguleti or Mr. Krishna Rao but from other parts of the state as well.
