What if a Disciplinary Committee itself breaks the discipline? That is the strange predicament that he Congress Party is facing in Telangana. The TPCC disciplinary committee is now in the dock for overstepping its brief. The Telangana Congress is now deeply divided with one group supporting it and another slamming it.

After Revanth Reddy’s rival and TPCC working president Turpu Jagga Reddy’s letter to AICC chief Sonia Gandhi complaining against Revanth’s ways became public, the TPCC disciplinary committee has taken a serious view of it. Committee’s chief and former minister G Chinna Reddy has announced that Jaggareddy would be called before the disciplinary committee to explain the leakage of the letter.

Now questions are being asked as to why Chinna Reddy revealed to the media the action that would be taken against Jagga Reddy. This, many argue, is a violation of the party’s code of conduct. Jagga Reddy said that Chinna Reddy is working at the behest of Revanth Reddy. He said that since the committee works under the PCC chief, the PCC chief has used Chinna Reddy to attack him.

The Revanth detractors point out that during the tenure of Kodanda Reddy and Marri Sasidhar Reddy, the disciplinary committee was never involved in any controversy. They were truly neutral and kept the party interests above all, they point out. It remains to be seen how the party’s high command with bring reconciliation among all the stakeholders.

Remember Revanth Reddy was one of the strongest critics of KCR’s mad faith in Vaasthu? He opposed the demolition of the secretariat and the CM’s residence to build Pragathi Bhavan. But now that he has become the PCC chief, he is taking up massive repairs to the Gandhi Bhavan before he takes oath of office. The reason? To make Gandhi Bhavan Vaasthu compliant!

Yes, a massive effort to give a facelift to the Congress headquarters Gandhi Bhavan is on these days and the works are going on at a furious pace. The workers are removing the park right in front of the Gandhi Bhavan and have already removed the railings around the Gandhi statue. Not just that, special chambers are being created for all the senior leaders who have been given key posts. Thus the leaders can operate from their chambers instead of the narrow rooms.

But most importantly, a new entry point is being created on the east side. The east side entrance will be the one that Revanth Reddy would be using. PCC chief’s chambers too will be on the east side. Similarly, the security room and the sales counter of party’s propaganda material are being dismantled. They would be relocated to some other place. Clearly, all these changes have kept the Vaasthu in mind.

Sources say Revanth Reddy’s associates and friends are involved in this work and that they are personally monitoring the progress of the work. The works will be completed by July 7, the day when Revanth Reddy will be sworn in. People are speaking in hushed tones about the Vaathu compliance of the new-look Gandhi Bhavan. And, what about Revanth Reddy’s criticism of KCR? Well! No one is talking about it now.
