According to party sources, the Congress, which feels it is on a strong wicket in Telangana, wants to make careful moves, in order to avoid any scope for a mess-up. Singh is involved in the selection of candidates and speaking to all T party leaders, including TPCC President Ponnala Lakshmaiah.
The high command is awaiting the final word on the ongoing TPCC-CPI electoral alliance. The party is waiting to see whether there is a possibility of talks with the TRS. Once clarity emerges on the issue, it would prefer to go ahead with the finalization of T candidates. The party had held the screening committee meetings for two days over the last week-end.
It finalized single-name, two-name and three-name panels for the Congress Election Committee meetings. At that point in time, the it held back finalization on 15-16 seats, on the ground that more home work was required to be done, before proceeding in the matter.
The party is keen to wrap up the exercise first for Telangana, before taking up the selection of candidates for the other State. With the party bus yatra concluding, soon APCC president N Raghuveera Reddy and APCC Campaign Committee chairman K Chiranjeevi will reach the capital to set in motion the process for selection of candidates. The exercise is expected to be completed by April 3-4.
