Internal discord seems to be intensifying in the Telangana unit of the Congress. State Congress Committee (PCC) The members resigned on Sunday in protest against the comments of some senior leaders that people from other parties have got prominence in the Congress. These 13 Members also include Congress MLA D. Anasuya (Sitakka) and former MLA V. Narendra Reddy.

Former Deputy Chief Minister of undivided Andhra Pradesh, Damodar Rajnarasinha, on Saturday said in connection with some former leaders of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) joining the Congress that if those coming from other parties were given consideration in the party If it goes, what message will it send among the “original Congress workers”. When Rajnarsingh made this remark, Congress Legislature Party leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, Lok Sabha member N. Uttam Kumar Reddy, former MP Madhu Yashki Goud and party MLA T. Jayaprakash Reddy were also present with him.

It is believed that these leaders are State Congress President and MP A.K. Revanth is angry with Reddy. Addressing reporters today, former MLA E. Anil appealed to ‘senior leaders’ to work together and bring the party back to power in the state. He said everyone in the party respects seniors.

The former MLA objected to Anil calling some party leaders “migrants”. He urged senior leaders to put up a united fight against the BRS-led government in Telangana and the BJP-led government at the Centre. The recent poor performance of the Congress in the Munugode assembly by-election saw internal strife in the state unit of the party.
