Congress leaders in Telangana Tuesday discussed with party chief Rahul Gandhi, the proposed broad-based alliance for the coming assembly elections and other issues.
TPCC president N Uttam Kumar Reddy told reporters that they discussed with Gandhi, issues related to the proposed alliance and some other matters, at the international airport here.
Gandhi was on his way to Delhi after visiting Kurnool in neighbouring Andhra Pradesh.
Reddy said Congress has taken a stand to collectively move ahead with those who join forces with it to end the 'mirule' of TRS.
Congress had earlier called upon all political and non-political forces to join forces with it to defeat the TRS.
Talks are underway among Congress, TDP, CPI and other parties to form the "grand alliance".
Reddy had earlier said the party leadership has given "in principle" acceptance to the alliance.
Reddy Tuesday wrote an open letter to government employees, teachers and pensioners, alleging that the ruling TRS has cheated them, though many had participated in the agitation for a separate Telangana, "risking their careers and the future of their families."
