Congress loses local faces; BRS gains six
A reported Rajendranagar joining programme gives the BRS a local boost, though the available record does not support the larger collapse Congress would rather everyone believe is not happening.
Six locally known figures were reported to have joined the BRS at a Rajendranagar programme.
Several locally known figures associated with Congress were reported to have joined the BRS at a programme in Ranga Reddy district on September 27, according to an ANI report republished by Webindia123. The event was held at the BRS office under Rajendranagar in-charge Patlolla Karthik Reddy, with K. T. Rama Rao welcoming entrants with pink scarves.
The report named former district Congress vice-president B. Sai Reddy, former MPTC member and Market Committee director B. Raju, former Manikonda sarpanches Yalala Naresh and Jaihind Rao, former Puppalaguda MPTC member Papalal Singh, and Manikonda councillor Yalala Lavanya. Others were not identified. Former ministers Sabitha Indra Reddy, Jagadish Reddy and Srinivas Goud, MLA Padi Kaushik Reddy and MLC Naveen Reddy were also reported to have attended.
BRS leaders said the move reflected growing support for KCR and predicted the party’s return to power. Those are political claims, not a constituency-wide survey. The available record establishes a reported local joining event, not a Congress collapse. Congress has not publicly answered it. For now, the scoreboard says six named local figures, not the end of history.
