Komatireddy Venkat Reddy revolts against high command
Komatireddy questioned the party high commands logic of giving sacrifice in the name of sacrifice for coalition terms and conditions
Narketpally (Nalgonda): The Congress party on Friday faced a peculiar situation when none other than senior Congress leader Komatireddy Venkat Reddy raised the banner of revolt against the party high command Rahul Gandhi for not giving ticket to fight election to his disciple and former MLA Chirumarthi Lingaiah from Nakrekal constituency.

He informed that Telangana Inti party, which got a seat as a partner of Grand Alliance (Mahakutami) and likely to contest from Nakrekal is a single person’s party and does not have either leaders or cadre in the constituency to face the formidable TRS.
