The upcoming swearing-in ceremony of Revanth Reddy as the new Chief Minister of Telangana has sparked excitement among Congress leaders, who anticipate this transition to mark a new chapter in the state’s history.
Congress MP Deepender Singh Hooda expressed the triumph as a win attributable to the party’s policies and hailed it as an achievement for key leaders like Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, and Kharge. He voiced confidence that Revanth Reddy’s tenure would signal a fresh beginning for Telangana.
Adding to this sentiment, Congress leader and MP K Suresh emphasized that the immediate agenda of the Telangana government would revolve around implementing the six guarantees pledged during the election campaign. Drawing from a similar scenario in Karnataka, he asserted that these promises would be systematically fulfilled, reflecting the commitment of the party.
Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra arrived in Hyderabad at the Hotel Taj Krishna, the venue of the swearing-in ceremony, ahead of schedule. Congress MLAs, as well as Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar, are expected to attend the ceremony.
Revanth Reddy, whose posters have been prominently displayed throughout Hyderabad, is set to become Telangana’s first Congress Chief Minister since the party’s formation in 2014. In the recent Assembly elections, he led the Congress to a resounding victory, securing 64 out of 119 seats, surpassing the incumbent Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) with 39 seats.
Acknowledging the support of party leaders and loyalists, Reddy conveyed his gratitude to AICC leaders and supporters for their unwavering backing through challenges and triumphs. He expressed his heartfelt appreciation to Congress leaders and supporters for their constant support.
Revanth Reddy, known for his strong criticism of outgoing Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, played a pivotal role in the Congress’ electoral campaign and was seen as the face of the party’s efforts in the state.
