Senior Congress leader and former Union Minister Renuka Chowdary has called upon voters to elect Congress-backed CPI candidate Kunamneni Sambasiva Rao from the Kothagudem Assembly constituency to uphold the interests of the public and democratic values.
It is imperative to defeat the corrupt and opportunistic politics to safeguard democracy, she said while launching a scathing attack on sitting MLA and BRS candidate Vanama Venkateshwara Rao at an election meeting held in Kothagudem on Wednesday.
Ms.Renuka conducted a whirlwind campaign in Kothagudem to drum up support for the CPI State secretary and former MLA Mr.Sambasiva Rao, who is contesting from Kothagudem as the CPI candidate in alliance with the Congress party.
She alleged that Mr.Venkateshwara Rao betrayed the Congress by defecting to the BRS after winning from the Kothagudem seat on the Congress ticket in 2018 Assembly elections. “Reject the opportunistic and parachute leaders who descend on the constituency only at the time of elections,” she said.
Mr.Sambasiva Rao has an unblemished and proven track record in public life and serving the cause of working class and other marginalised sections, she said urging the voters to elect him in the November 30 Assembly polls.
