Hyderabad: Congress leader Ponguleti Sudhakar Reddy on Friday met UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi in New Delhi and urged her to reorganise the party leadership in TS.
Mr Reddy also submitted a report to Ms Gandhi, which said the failure to tap the Telangana sentiment ruined party’s prospects in the Assembly elections, while the alliance with Telugu Desam played spoilsport at the grass-root level.
He urged Ms Gandhi to implement the reforms in the state leadership of the party immediately so that it could fare better in the upcoming the panchayat elections as well as the Lok Sabha elections that will follow.
