Revanth: Pragathi Bhavan will become Praja Bhavan; says Congress will implement six guarantees soon

Hyderabad: Thanking senior Congress leader Sonia Gandhi and AICC chief Mallikarjun Kharge, TPCC chief Revanth Reddy on Sunday said it is the party’s responsibility to fulfil Telangana people’s aspirations after forming the government in the state.

He said the Pragathi Bhavan, the official residence of the chief minister, will be renamed ‘Praja Bhavan’ once the Congress forms the government.

Speaking to media persons, he said the Congress’s victory is dedicated to Telangana martyrs. “Pragathi Bhavan will be ‘Praja Bhawan’ and renamed Dr Baba Saheb Ambedkar Bhavan. It will become people’s bhavan,” said Revanth.

Former AICC president Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra gave impetus to the party in the state, Reddy said, adding that the six guarantees made by the Congress and the other promises made by leaders such as Rahul Gandhi would also be implemented, once the party forms the government.

The soon-to-be-formed Congress government will work towards protecting people’s rights in the state, the TPCC chief said. Henceforth even common people will have an entry into the state secretariat, he added.

“It is a people’s mandate. We need not (do) a postmortem. If everything goes well, then only you will get that magic number. The simple point is that they (people) wanted to change. They wanted to defeat KCR. They have defeated KCR. That’s all,” he said.

He also thanked Congress allies in the polls, CPI and Telangana Jana Samithi, for their support.

Revanth’s called for BRS cooperation

Welcoming BRS working president KT Rama Rao’s wishes for the Congress party on its victory, Reddy said he expects the BRS’s cooperation in giving good governance to the people and fulfilling people’s aspirations. Reddy said the people have decided the role of the opposition.

“To revive democratic values, we are expecting that the BRS will come forward,” he said.
