Amid calls to oust Revanth as Telangana Congress chief, he walks along with Rahul

Hyderabad: Amid growing calls for A Revanth Reddy’s ouster from Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC), the state Congress party president has joined Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra in Haryana.
It is to be noted that senior members of the TPCC, namely Bhatti Vikramarka and Uttam Kumar Reddy had expressed displeasure with Reddy in recent times, referring to him and a bunch of other leaders as ‘outsiders’.
In his statement, Vikramarka said that 54 of the 108 posts in the Telangana Congress were assigned to former Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leaders. A host of TDP members joined the Congress party in the state in 2017, Revanth Reddy being the most prominent of those.
