Continuing tradition in undivided Mahbubnagar district in Telngana state, senior leaders of Congress Party still did not leave cold war for domination. The differences between leaders had lead to losing of Congress Party’s stronghold on the district and they did not learn lessons from the previous elections.
All the senior leaders now began their efforts in obtaining party tickets to their group leaders for upcoming general elections in 2019. Especially, the cold is reaching to peak between former Union Minister Jaipal Reddy and ex minister D.K. Aruna groups.
In Devarakadra Assembly Segment, party’s incharge Mr. Dokur Pavan Kumar Reddy is seeking a chance for second time for contesting as MLA while another group is supporting Katam Pradeep Kumar Goud. Another congress leader and advocate Madhusudhan Reddy is also in race for ticket which is leading triangle competition here. So far, D.K. Aruna is dominating this constituency and now, Jaipal Reddy’s group began poking into the politics here. Recently, the Jaipal’s group established cut-outs and banners related to New Year event in which Pradeep Kumar Goud wished the public of the constituency. Another group removed the banners by alleging photographs of their group leaders were disappeared and the matter went to FIR by local police.
Following this incident, all the aspirants have started announcements openly as themselves as candidates for upcoming elections. Besides this, leaders of Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee have seriously condemned announcements of local leaders on candidates for few constituencies for coming elections in Amrabad last week. While TPCC Chief announced a senior leader as party’s candidate, local leaders during a public meeting announced another leader which is indicating indiscipline in the party. Similarly, competition over domination in Congress is being continued in Mahbubnagar and Alampur Assembly Constitutions.
