Ex-MP Srinivas Reddy to announce decision on political future soon

"In another few days, within four-five days, decision will be announced as per the view of lakhs of people in Khammam district and Telangana. We will announce from the same stage about joining the party."

Hyderabad: Amid speculation that he would join the Congress, former MP and suspended BRS leader Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy on Friday said he would announce a decision on his political future in the next few days.

He said he would take a decision based on the views expressed by his supporters and people in Khammam district and the state. "It was analysed as to what decision would dislodge this government of K Chandrasekhar Rao that did not bother about people... It took a lot of time to elicit the views of so many people," he told reporters.

"In another few days, within four-five days, decision will be announced as per the view of lakhs of people in Khammam district and Telangana. We will announce from the same stage about joining the party."

The ruling BRS suspended Srinivas Reddy and former minister Jupally Krishna Rao from the party for alleged anti-party activities in April this year.
Srinivas Reddy is a former Lok Sabha member from Khammam while Krishna Rao, a former minister, had lost the Assembly elections in 2018.
There has been intense speculation about the political moves of Srinivas Reddy and Krishna Rao. Leaders of both the BJP and Congress had reportedly met the two leaders and invited them to join their parties. (PTI)
