The elections are a good two years away but the fight for the ticket has already got very intense in Bhupalpall. There are at least three claimants for the Congress ticket in Bhupalpally. All the three are influential and powerful. Hence the fight has become all the more bitter.
Konda couple - Konda Murali and Konda Surekha - are eyeing the Bhopalpally seat. They are already sending the feelers that one of them would contest the elections from the constituency. Meanwhile, former minister Duddilla Sridhar Babu's brother Srinu Babu has been working in the constituency for the past two years. Ever since, two-time Congress MLA Gandra Venkata Ramana Reddy left the party and joined the TRS, Srinu Babu has been working in the constituency. In fact he has been mobilizing the party cadres and has been holding several anti-government protests.
Meanwhile, Revanth Reddy's appointment as the party's chief in Telangana has added a new dimension. Revanth Reddy's friend from the TDP days Gandra Satyanarayana Rao has begun preparations to join the Congress. He has already met Revanth Reddy and has begun the process of reaching out to the Congress cadre. He has already indicated that he would join the party soon and become its MLA candidate.
All the three leaders are vying for the same seat and this has led to competitive politics. Gandra Satyanarayana is claiming that he has the support of the PCC chief. Surekha too is making a strong bid for the seat. She is claiming that she has always been helping the Congress workers from the constituency. Who will Revanth Reddy choose from among the three? Or will any other unexpected person become the party candidate? Let's wait and see.
