Congress woos TRS legislator B Sanjeeva Rao to join fold
Sources said the Congress leaders were trying to convince Mr Sanjeeva Rao to join the Congress.
Hyderabad: With the campaign heating up for the December 7 elections, the Telangana Rashtra Samiti is continuing to get shocks from its leaders. Within 24 hours of MP Konda Vishweshwar Reddy quitting the party, TRS legislator B. Sanjeeva Rao from Vikarabad resigned on Wednesday.
He will join the Congress in the presence of UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi and Mr Rahul Gandhi in Hyderabad. They are scheduled to address a public meeting at Medchal on the city outskirts.
The same day, some more TRS leaders, including TRS MLC K. Yadava Reddy and former MLC S. Jagadiswar Reddy, are likely to join the Congress.
Sources said the Congress leaders were trying to convince Mr Sanjeeva Rao to join the Congress. If he agrees, he will join the party along with Mr Vishweshwar Reddy.
