Rahul Gandhi to be in Hyderabad today

Mon 13 Aug 2018, 11:57:17
Massive arrangements are in place for the two-day tour of AICC President Rahul Gandhi to Hyderabad and Ranga Reddy districts on August 13 & 14.

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) President, N. Uttam Kumar Reddy, along with senior leaders including AICC Telangana Incharge R.C. Khuntia and others, reviewed all the arrangements for Rahul Gandhi’s tour. He also visited Exhibition Society Grounds on Sunday where the special bus, likely to be used by Rahul Gandhi, was being given final touches. Later, he held a series of meetings to discuss various aspects related to the AICC President’s tour programme.

“Rahul Gandhi’s tour is of historic importance. He is visiting Telangana at a time when all sections of the society have lost hopes from the present TRS and BJP Governments. The Congress president will not only expose the failures of TRS and BJP regime but will highlight the Congress party’s plans to change the situation. Unlike past, we did not focus on mobilising a large number of people in one big public meeting. Instead, we are organising interactive meetings with select groups wherein Rahul Gandhi can deliver a specific message to them,” Uttam Kumar Reddy said.

Similarly, the meeting at Serilingampally will be focussed on the failure of TRS Government in pressuring the Centre for implementing the promises made in the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act. “KCR has failed to get a steel plant at Bayyaram, Railway Coach Factory at Qazipet, Tribal University or any other sop. Instead of being apologetic for their failures, TRS leaders are shamelessly targeting Congress party for supporting Special



Status for AP,” he said and reminded that once KCR had claimed that he was a party to the drafting of AP Reorganisation Act. “Was he not aware of seven mandals of Khammam being given to AP? Is it not true that Kavitha and even KCR had supported Special Category Status for AP?” he asked.

“KCR is acting like PM Modi’s agent. TRS has supported all the decisions taken by the BJP-led NDA Government since the beginning. It never lodged any protest against the injustices being done with Telangana,” he said.

Rahul Gandhi will arrive at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Shamshabad at 2.30 pm. He will then proceed to Classic Convention Centre in Shamshabad where he will have an interaction with members of Women Self Help Groups from 3 pm to 4 pm. He will then leave for Sherlingampally where he will address a public meeting between 5.30 pm to 7 pm. The Congress party will do night halt in Hotel Haritha Plaza.

The next day (August 14), Rahul Gandhi will have a teleconference with Booth Committee Presidents from 9 am to 9.30 am at Haritha Plaza He will also have a meeting with senior leaders. The AICC Chief will have an interaction with Editors from 10.30-11.30 am. At 12 noon, he will address a meeting with industrialists in Hotel Taj Krishna. At 3.30 pm, he will visit Gun Park and pay floral tributes to Telangana Martyrs at Amaraveerula Stupam. He will also be meeting students and youth before addressing a public meeting at Saroornagar Stadium from 5 pm to 6.15 pm.

After the meeting, Rahul Gandhi will leave for the airport and take a regular flight to Delhi at 7.30 pm.
