Panchayat poll verdict signals public anger against Congress, says KTR

BRS working president KT Rama Rao on Monday said the results of the first and second phase of panchayat elections had sent a clear message that the Congress government was fast losing public confidence across rural Telangana. 

The ruling party’s poor performance in elections held without party symbols reflected



deep-rooted dissatisfaction among villagers with the Congress’s two-year rule.

“If this is the fate of the Congress in non-party elections, its defeat in MPTC and ZPTC polls conducted with party symbols will be even more humiliating,” he said, calling the results a slap in the face for Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy.
