Vijayashanti met Rahul Gandhi
Lady super star Vijayashanti, who went into political hibernation after 2014 elections after getting defeated in the hands of Padma Devender Reddy, has suddenly become active now. She has met party in-charge Kuntia today. Later she met national vice-president Rahul Gandhi too today. Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president, Uttam Kumar Reddy was present at the meet.
Vijayashanti is planning to play a key role in Telangana Congress party during the elections in 2019. She is also expecting some important posts, like member of All India Congress Committee (AICC) as well as member of a Publicity Committee of the party. Congress Telangana in-charge RC Kuntia has confirmed that Vijayashanti will play an active role in Telangana politics, will campaign for the party, will attend all party meetings and work to strengthen the party.
Congress party and Rahul Gandhi seem to have focused on Telangana state as they believe they have chances on winning as their party only granted statehood to Telangana. Recently firebrand Revanth Reddy joined Congress. Vijaya shanti, who also is a firebrand, became active now. We have to wait and see whether they will help Rahul Gandhi achieve his dream of coming into power in Telangana.
