Anjan Kumar slams Ponnam, says high command will decide Jubilee Hills candidate

Former MP and TPCC working president Anjan Kumar Yadav has hit out at BC Welfare Minister Ponnam Prabhakar, stating that it is the Congress high command which will finalise the candidate for the Jubilee Hills bye-election.

“I am senior to Ponnam Prabhakar in the party. It is the Congress high command which decides on the Jubilee Hills candidate, not the Minister,” he said, according to



reports.

Earlier, the Minister had laid the foundation for development works in the constituency on Saturday and expressed confidence that Congress would win the bye-election comfortably.

Anjan Kumar Yadav is among the party aspirants keen to contest the bye-election. Even before the party announced its candidate, he had begun campaigning in the constituency and conducting programmes.
