Hyderabad: Gandra Venkataramana Reddy, Congress MLA from Bhupalapally, has ruled out any possibility of joining Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), while agreeing that TRS is luring MLAs with attractive packages. People with some vested interests are spreading such rumours, he said.
“I will remain with Congress party, which gave me several positions such as party president for undivided Warangal, MLC, MLA and Chief Whip. Congress party is like my birth place and I will never leave it. I will fight on behalf of people for fulfilling poll promises by the TRS party,” said Reddy.
He is also open to justify the role of opposition leader in the House. Reddy on Congress ticket won from Bhupalapally with 69,918 votes, while TRS fell to third position in the constituency. With 54,283 votes, Gandra Satyanarayana Rao of All India Forward Block stood at second position and former Speaker Sirikonda Madhusudhana Chary of TRS got 53,567 votes.
