Senior Congress leader, Bhongir Lok Sabha Member Komatireddy Venkat Reddy is known for his no-nonsense nature and speaks his heart out. Going by his same nature, the MP had surprised everyone with his statements on extending support to former TRS leader and current BJP leader Etela Rajender in the by-poll.
Agreeing with the fact of supporting Etela Rajender, Komatireddy Venkat Reddy said, they had to support Etela due to the equation that the enemy of their enemy(TRS) is a friend to them. The Lok Sabha member’s observations came at the time when Telangana is eagerly waiting for the Huzurabad by-election result.
He went on to say that Etela Rajender will win the by-election and termed the election result as a tight slap for the TRS government. According to my predictions, Etela Rajender would win the elections with a big majority, Mr. Reddy said.
This is a quite contrasting statement from that of TPCC chief Revanth Reddy who earlier said they are not supporting anyone and taking the by-election quite seriously. Komatireddy’s comments had raised a lot of questions on the Congress party’s intentions. Balmuri Venkat Narsing Rao was given the Congress party ticket. He is restricted to third place and the fight is between BJP’s Etela Rajender and TRS’s Gellu Srinivas Yadav.
