YSRCP to Contest Warangal By-poll

Hyderabad: YSR Congress Party will field a candidate for the Warangal Lok Sabha by-election scheduled to be held on November 21.A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting held at the Party Central office here on Tuesday with Party leadership, Telangana Party President P Srinivas Reddy told reporters.

The huge response to the Paramarsa Yatra of Sharmila has proved that the people still revere YSR for his welfare schemes as people of Warangal district are the maximum beneficiaries.

‘People also understand the political manipulation behind the Lok Sabha seat falling vacant and TRS government's failure to fulfil poll promises of loan waiver, securing MSP to farmers and providing houses to the weaker sections. YSR had built houses which run close to the number of houses built in the entire country which is the reason why he is remembered even today,’ he said.

In the 2014 elections people were emotional and voted for TRS but with the true colours of the party exposed in the past 18 months, YSR Congress stands a better position to getting maximum support and winning the election.

Congress will not be forgiven for its petty politics in imposing cases against YS Jagan Mohan Reddy and TDP-BJP combine has proved its worthlessness, he said. The name of the candidate will be announced soon
