The ruling TRS in Telangana Monday stepped up its canvassing for the December 7 Assembly elections, with its key leaders, including minister K T Rama Rao, hitting the campaign trail.
According to party sources, TRS president and caretaker chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is in Delhi Monday to undergo routine eye tests in view of the campaign schedule in the run-up to polls.
TRS MP K Kavitha, daughter of the TRS president, spoke at a party meeting at Jagtial near Karimnagar.
She slammed Congress and TDP for coming together (as part of "grand alliance" also comprising CPI and TJS) for the elections as TDP was founded by late N T Rama Rao on anti-Congress plank.
TDP is reviving Congress which has become weak, she claimed.
She said TDP's Telangana unit president L Ramana, who hails from Jagtial, would face defeat if he does not think on behalf of Telangana.
