Danam Quits Congress Post, Ready To Join TRS!

Danam Quits Congress Post, Ready To Join TRS!

Hyderabad city Congress president  Danam Nagender tendered his resignation from the party post on Saturday taking moral responsibility for the party’s debacle in GHMC elections.

The Congress recorded its worst ever performance in GHMC polls by winning just 2 seats against 52 seats in 2009 GHMC elections.

Interestingly, Danam praised KCR and KTR for historic performance of TRS in GHMC elections giving indication that he is attempting to join TRS again. However, he said, he will continue to serve the Congress party as an ordinary party activist.

Danam, who almost joined TRS in December 2015, just a month ahead of GHMC elections, dropped his plans at the last minute after KCR refused to agree to some of the demands put forth by Danam like giving him Mayor post if TRS wins besides other posts for his followers.

Later, Danam announced that he would continue to remain in Congress but the party high command did not trust him and confined him to only his Khairatabad constituency without giving any powers.

Danam was waiting to exit from Congress since then and waiting for an appropriate time.

With Congress receiving a severe drubbing in GHMC polls, Danam found the occasion to leave the party and join TRS.

However, it remains to be seen whether KCR and KTR were interested to take Danam into the party at this stage who lost his political dominance in city after losing Khairatabad MLA seat in 2014 Assembly elections.
