Revanth meets sulking leaders at their houses

Leaders sing unity mantra — ‘no groupism now only fight against TRS, BJP’

Newly appointed State Congress chief A. Revanth Reddy spent better part of his day on Tuesday calling on the sulking seniors, who missed the bus to become the TPCC president. An indication of all was not well within the party after Mr. Revanth Reddy’s elevation was available as TPCC vice-president Mallu Ravi visited the house of CLP leader Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka on Tuesday morning. He held brief discussion with Mr. Bhatti, who incidentally is also his brother. The CLP leader was in the race for the TPCC president’s post till he was pipped by Mr. Revanth Reddy, who managed to win the confidence of the central leadership. In the last one week, Mr. Revanth Reddy too met all the seniors, who by and large toed the party line and did not make an issue of the new appointments. He consciously avoided meeting party seniors like outgoing chief N. Uttam Kumar Reddy, Bhatti Vikramarka, T. Jayaprakash Reddy, D. Sridhar Babu and Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and others.
