HYDERABAD: Telangana Congress president A Revanth Reddy on Tuesday called on former MP Konda Vishweshwar Reddy at his residence, giving rise to speculation that the latter is being wooed back into Congress fold. This was the first meeting between the two after Revanth took over as the new president of Telangana Congress.
Vishweshwar resigned from Congress in mid-March, but did not join any political party so far. He has been meeting leaders like Eatala Rajender and TJS president M Kodandaram and kept everyone guessing about his next political move.
After the meeting, Vishweshwar made it clear that Revanth did not invite him to come back into Congress. “We discussed about the strategy to bring together ‘anti-TRS forces’ to fight on issues like Krishna water sharing, failure of the government to address the unemployed problem and 1.91 lakh vacancies not being filled up,” he said.
