Congress Desperate To Lure Revanth?

Congress Desperate To Lure Revanth?

The Congress party high command seems to be desperate to lure firebrand Telangana Telugu Desam Party MLA A Revanth Reddy into the Congress so as to put up a strong fight in the next elections.

Apparently realising that the party needs some young leaders who have the capacity and popularity to take on the mighty Telangana Rashtra Samithi in the 2019 elections, the high command is said to have asked its general secretary and in-charge of Telangana affairs Digvijay Singh to contact Revanth Reddy and make efforts to bring him into the Congress.

During his recent visit to Hyderabad, Digvijay Singh reportedly contacted Revanth and had one-on-one discussion with him.

He reportedly offered several benefits to Revanth if the latter joins the Congress. It is not exactly known what the response of the Telangana TDP leader was for the offer made by Digivijay Singh.

When the Telangana Congress leaders came to know about it, they reportedly expressed anguish over Digvijay Singh.

They felt that the AICC leader should have discussed with them first before having a meeting with Revanth. It was nothing but undermining the existing leadership, they felt.
