Hyderabad, Feb.11 (RANUMA): Minister for Irrigation and Civil Supplies N. Uttam Kumar Reddy stated that the Congress party will be in power for a minimum of eight more years in Telangana with the strong support base it has successfully built.
It is assured of an overwhelming success in the next assembly elections too, he said.
Speaking to media persons after casting his vote, along with his wife and Kodad MLA, N. Padmavathy Reddy in Kodad town on Wednesday, the Minister said with a guaranteed win assured in the next assembly elections, the Congress government will shape Telangana into one of the top-performing states and revive its glory.
He said the outcome of the municipal elections will cement the possibility of continued success. If the winning streak maintained by the Congress party from the December 2023 assembly elections to the recent Gram Panchayat polls is any indication, no political party could be seen as a close rival to the Congress.
The municipal election outcome is going to be a historic milestone in Telangana. It will be yet another addition to the list of elections that have helped Congress with continued electoral success and consolidate its mass base. This streak started from the Assembly elections in 2023, Uttam Kumar Reddy said.
The opposition parties’ deliberate campaigns have no credence. Recalling the party’s success in Secunderabad Cantonment, MLC elections, the last parliamentary polls, the Jubilee Hills by-election, and Gram Panchayat elections of late, he said the municipal elections outcome would also reflect the positive wave sweeping across the state in favour of the Congress government.
Quoting the statewide polling trends, the Minister said the Congress will win over 90 percent of the urban local bodies and it will register a near clean sweep in the 123 urban local bodies, including seven municipal corporations.
Uttam Kumar Reddy said the positive atmosphere was owed to the effective governance, welfare initiatives, development, and transparent administration, which are the hallmarks of its two-year rule.
