Member of Parliament from Bhongir Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, one of the first to oppose the appointment of Malkajgiri MP A. Revanth Reddy as Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee president and made bitter statements last week, clarified his stand on Thursday. “Those statements were out of distress, that I was not chosen even after having all the qualification. But that doesn’t mean I would leave the Congress. Designations were never important tor me, my resignation as MP for separate Telangana is evident proof,” he said. Mr. Venkat Reddy was in Bhongir on Thursday, to pay tributes to former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy on the latter’s 72nd birth anniversary. He garlanded the statue and remembered YSR as a great leader, who brought several reforms in public health, gave free electricity tor farmers and brought Pranahitha-Chevella Project.
