Paleru By-poll: Ram Reddy's Wife letter to KCR!

Update: 2016-04-25 08:02 GMT
Former MLA late Ram Reddy Venkat Reddy's wife Sucharitha Reddy, who is Congress party candidate in Paleru by-election, wrote a letter to Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao seeking a favor.

Quoting that both TDP & YSR Congress withdrew from contest on humanitarian grounds, Sucharitha Reddy appealed KCR to make the by-election unanimous by not fielding any candidate against her.

Apparently, TRS Fielded Minister Tummala Nageswar Rao as its candidate in Paleru by-election. While YSR Congress extended its support to Congress candidate few days ago, TDP announced its decision to back Sucharitha Reddy on Sunday. Even CPM which received 44,000 votes in 2014 general elections is likely to stay away from the polls only to favor the Reddy Family. All the Opposition Parties united to make sure Congress candidate wins against TRS Candidate in the by-poll scheduled to take place in May this year.

In 2014 elections, TRS got just 4,000 votes in Paleru Assembly Constituency. But, Tummala's entry changed the equations and helped the ruling party gain strength.
