Telangana: Rahul Gandhi to hold roadshow with TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu today

With a few days left for Assembly elections in Telangana and Rajasthan, Congress president Rahul Gandhi is leaving no stone unturned to woo voters ahead of the December 7 polls. After addressing a series of rallies in both the states, Rahul Gandhi will yet again hold public meetings in Telangana’s Gadwal and Tandur on Monday. The Congress has joined hands with Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) against Telangana's caretaker Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao's ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi. The Congress, the TDP, Telangana Jana Samithi (TJS) and the CPI have formed an alliance against the TRS and the BJP.

Telangana was born of idealism & great dreams. But, 4 yrs. of TRS/BJP incompetence, arrogance & corruption has made the people cynical.

Rahul Gandhi and N Chandrababu Naidu had on Wednesday addressed three public meetings together in Telangana. That was the first time top leaders of the Congress and the TDP addressed public meetings together. Naidu and Rahul attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of causing immense hardship to people by bringing in demonetisation and GST. “Poor people have still not recovered from the note ban. GST has not been implemented properly, causing problems to small traders,’’ Naidu said at a meeting at Khammam as quoted by the Indian Express.
