Bypoll: KCR meet on Oct 30 set to rev up TRS campaign

Hyderabad : In a bid to give the party’s campaign in Munugode a push before the DDay on November 3, chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao will address a public meeting near Chandur on October 30, two days before the campaigning ends on November 1.

The event to be held on an area spread over 30 acres between Chandur and Bangaru Gadda would also be KCR’s first public meeting since he launched his national plan by renaming TRS as Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) on October 5. KCR is expected to drill home the message that a thumping victory in Munugode constituency would set the stage for BRS to go ballistic against the BJP atthe national level.

It was on August 20 that KCR had last held a public meeting in the constituency. He had not announced any sops then, but only promised Munugode that he would return before the bypoll. Now, there is an air of expectation in the constituency which is hoping that there would be a promise of welfare sops and projects to be showered on them after the bypoll.

TRC MLC T Ravinder Rao told TOIthat men, women and youngsters will take out padayatras from villages to Chandur to listen to KCR on October 30.
