Reportedly 12 MLAs of the 'HAND' party have met Telangana Assembly speaker Pocharam Srinivasa Reddy at Ministers quarters. Meanwhile the MLAs have submitted a letter to the speaker requesting him to merge the Congress legislature party into TRS in the assembly and the letter had all the 12 MLAs signature in it.
Furthermore this is a serious blow to Congress and it completely failed to protect or assure its MLAs that the party will recognize their work in future. Further with the MLAs submitting a letter, now it is just a matter of time before Speaker announces it officially. Moreover getting know about this Congress leader V Hanumantha Rao has expressed his deep displeasure and slammed MLAs for defecting the party and joining TRS.
Moreover he appealed to the Congress high command to take immediate necessary steps to save the party and while this is at one end, political circles are analyzing who will be left in Congress now. Apparently Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka is CLP leader while Jagga Reddy, Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy, sridhar Babu and one more MLA are hardcore Congress party leaders and they might not get influence by TRS.
