The small assembly segment Kodangal, which was under the jurisdiction of undivided Mahbubnagar and later shifted to Vikarabad district during reorganization of district, has been attracting voters of Telangana following possibilities of tough fight between opposition party Congress and ruling party TRS.
The chiefs of both parties have taken the victory in the segment as serious while A. Revanth Reddy, who was involved in ‘Cash for Vote’ case and the recent I-T raids, is supposed to be the candidate of Congress and the TRS strategically announced Mr. Patnam Narender Reddy, who is brother of Minister Mr. Patnam Mahender Reddy.
While the congress is confidence on Revanth Reddy as he is sitting ex-MLA and having cadre, the TRS focusing on new localities which were merged during reorganization of districts.
Revanth Reddy has already alleged that the Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao and the Director General of Police Mr. M. Mahender Reddy were planning conspiracy for his defeat in the segment. While Revanth Reddy has started campaign as one-man-army as there was no support of other senior leaders from the undivided Mahbubnagar except Former Union Minister Jaipal Reddy, the TRS has deployed few ministers for supporting Mr. Patnam Narender Reddy. By the ongoing circumstances with the strategies of TRS, Kodangal has become hot topic among political parties.
