Political circles in the erstwhile composite Khammam district are abuzz with excitement over “Sankalpa Sabha”, the public meeting scheduled to be addressed by Sharmila seeking to bring “Rajanna Rajyam” (pro-poor and welfare regime) to Telangana, in this fort town on Friday. The public meeting, according to the admirers of former Chief Minister of the erstwhile undivided Andhra Pradesh late Dr Y S Rajasekhar Reddy (YSR), would prove to be a turning point in Telangana’s politics as late YSR’s daughter Ms Sharmila is expected to announce the launch date of her new political party at Sankalpa Sabha. Ms Sharmila had extensively toured the old undivided Khammam district during her “Maro Praja Prasthanam”, a State-wide walkathon, in 2013.More Related News
