The announcement of the Congress’s candidates’ list is bound to get delayed and may take another 20 days at least though the screening committee for the Telangana Congress held wide-ranging discussions with the pradesh election committee (PEC) members on Monday.
The screening committee headed by Kerala MP, K. Muraleedharan will be here on Tuesday and Wednesday for consultations with all the stakeholders, and later submit its report to the All India Congress Committee (AICC), which will take a final decision.
But with the announcement of fresh dates for the Congress Working Committee (CWC) to be held on September 16 and 17 and the arrangements to be made for the mega show, it is highly unlikely that the focus would be on discussing the candidates list sent from the States. The AICC leadership will be busy with the key issues concerning the nation to be discussed at the CWC and the party’s political stand.
