“It is my responsibility that Metro Rail to Old City is completed with in four years. My friend has given 10 years to his old friend (meaning KCR). I ask him to give just 4 years to me. It is my responsibility that Hyderabad Metro Rail is extended up to Chandrayangutta. I will ask for votes in Chandrayangutta only after completing Metro Rail. I will ensure that our Congress candidate, who is a BC, wins for Chandrayangutta, and seek even Akbaruddin’s support,” said Revanth Reddy assuring AIMIM leader.
One point which caught everyone’s attention was, Chandrayangutta is represented by Akbaruddin Owaisi. Someone in the House pointed out, ‘what will happen to Owaisi, if Congress candidate wins from Chandrayangutta?’
