Rahul Gandhi met leaders of Congress party in two Telugu states. He took part in the Jana Garjana event marking the joining of former Khammam MP Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy and CLP leader Bhatti Vikramarka’s people march concluding event.
Though the two occasions are different, a single public event was held in Khammam. Rahul Gandhi landed at the Gannavaram airport and spoke to the AP Congress leaders.
Speaking on the occasion, Rahul Gandhi urged the leaders to use the Ghar Wapsi weapon. It is the concept to bring back the leaders who left the Congress for other parties. Though the concept sounds fancy, there are questions like why leaders will join Congress again and what is left in the party. TDP and Congress and singing the Ghar Wapasi tunes in Telangana.
Talking about the TDP, there are a few big leaders and the party has a committed cadre.
Talking about the Congress party it is looking in some josh. Leaders like Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy and Damodar Reddy joined the party already. It is being reported that few other leaders are looking at the party.
Though there is no clarity on what would happen in the future, an opinion is doing rounds that the Congress would come to power. We can say that there is a good response to the Congress party’s call.
But the situations are different in AP Congress. The party’s condition has been alarming for the past ten years. We cannot even say who are there in the party. Forget about winning the elections, the party did not even have candidates to contest in the last elections. Those who contested could not even get deposits.
Party hoping for Ghar Wapsi in such a situation is shocking. There are a few doubts on whether Rahul Gandhi has no idea about what is happening with AP Congress or whether leaders are misleading him. Let us wait and see what happens next.
