TPCC President Uttam Kumar Reddy, AICC Telangana Incharge R.C. Khuntia, CLP leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, AICC Secretary Srinivasan Krishnan,former MPs V

Hanumantha Rao, Ponnam Prabhakar and Madhu Yashki Goud, among others, attended the session, a party release said.

On the first day, a meeting was held with leaders of Adilabad, Peddapalli, Nizamabad, Zaheerabad, Karimnagar and Warangal Lok Sabha constituencies.

Uttam Kumar Reddy said Lok Sabha elections would be completely different from that of Assembly as local issues get prominence in Assembly polls while people consider national issues for Lok Sabha candidates.

 

The TPCC chief said there were multiple factors such as "defective EVMs, wrong poll processes, biased attitude of Election Commission or deletion of voters" which led to the Congress party's defeat in the previous elections.

"Admit defeat, but also show that world that the Congress party has a history of making a strong comeback.The views and opinions of each and every Congress worker count.

We must have a positive approach and ensure that all available resources and strengths are utilised to make Rahul Gandhi the next Prime Minister," he said.
