Congress burns within as VHR threatens to expose Uttam’s anti-party activities
Stating that Uttam Kumar Reddy had opposed a BC meeting at Suryapet, the former MP said the Nalgonda MP needed BC community votes but did not extend support to a BC meeting.
Hyderabad: Former MP V HanumanthRao has said that Nalgonda MP N UttamKumarReddy was resorting to a mudslinging campaign against him, besides hatching conspiracies to ensure his exit from the Congress.
UttamKumarReddy was instrumental in the exit of senior leaders MaheshwarReddy and GudurNarayanReddy from the Congress, he said, adding that UttamKumar had instigated SangareddyMLA T JaggaReddy against TPCC president A RevanthReddy after assuring the MLA that he would become the next TPCC president. He made JaggaReddy comment against RevanthReddy regularly, Rao told the media here on Sunday.
Stating that UttamKumarReddy had opposed a BC meeting at Suryapet, the former MP said the Nalgonda MP needed BC community votes but did not extend support to a BC meeting.
Many OBC wing members of the Congress have been complaining about step-motherly treatment, especially in allotment of tickets to BC community leaders in the party. In protest against this attitude, CherukuSudhakar quit Congress and joined the ruling BRS.
In the past, HanumanthRao was elected as MLA from Amberpet constituency and he even served as a Minister.
“I am supporting the candidature of LaxmanYadav from Amberpet. But Uttam is encouraging N Srikanth Goud, who lodged an SC / ST atrocity case against me”HanumanthRao said, adding that in the last elections as per the party high command directions, the Amberpet ticket was allotted to TelanganaJanaSamithi founder Prof Kodandaram. Now, UttamKumar wants to field his supporter Srikanth Goud, which was not acceptable, Rao said.
Vowing to expose UttamKumarReddy’s anti-Congress activities, HanumanthRao said Uttam wanted a ticket for himself and his wife, to which he had not objected. “But if Uttam does not mend his ways, I too will start campaigning against him” he said.
