Kavitha to launch party in May, eyes KCR’s earlier turf Siddipet
Hyderabad
Telangana Jagruti president Kalvakuntla Kavitha, on Thursday, announced that her proposed political party would be formally launched in the first week of May, and she would prefer to contest from Siddipet, which is now held by her cousin T. Harish Rao and earlier represented by her father and BRS chief K. Chandrasekhar Rao.
In an informal chat with the media, she said that the new party would be rooted firmly in Telangana and with its political ideology. On her choice of contest, she said that it would be either Siddpet or Bodhan.
Ms. Kavitha said that her party would continuously question the policies and actions of the Congress, Bharatiya Janata Party and Bharat Rashtra Samithi. She also predicted that the BJP’s presence in Telangana would gradually diminish.
On future electoral strategy, she said that her party would consider contesting the MPTC and ZPTC elections in alliance with another party. She was hopeful that by the time of the GHMC elections, the Election Commission would allot a symbol to her party, and asserted that the party would contest the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation polls on its own symbol.
She revealed that several leaders from the BRS were keen to join her new party and that many of them were already in touch with her. “I will share details when the time is right,” she said.
