Hyderabad: Congress has strongly condemned the attack on party candidate for Munugode bypoll Palvai Shranvati allegedly by members of the Bharatiya Janata Paty (BJP) while she was campaigning in Nampally Mandal on Sunday.
“The attack on Palvai Shravanti’s convoy is highly condemnable. This clearly shows that BJP and also TRS leaders are trembling with the fear of a humiliating defeat. They are unable to digest the tremendous response to Congress campaign in Munugode constituency and consequently, they have engaged ‘goondas’ to attack our candidate Shravanti,” Nalgonda MP and former TPCC President Uttam Kumar Reddy said in a media statement.
