Hours before the Congress party’s ‘Telangana Jana Garjana’ public meeting to be held in Khammam late this afternoon, former Khammam MP Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy has alleged that the ruling BRS was grossly misusing power to stop people from attending the public meeting in a desperate bid to foil it.
Mr. Reddy is all set to join the Congress party along with another expelled BRS leader and former Minister Jupalli Krishna Rao and others in the presence of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi at the public meeting.
The meet is being organised to mark the conclusion of Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka’s 109-day State-wide padayatra that covered 1,360 k.m. in 17 districts and 36 constituencies across the State.
