“No Surprise If Kavitha Joins Congress”
Addressing reporters, Malreddy Ranga Reddy said recent political developments have shown that unexpected moves are possible. He recalled how leaders like Danam Nagender and Kadiyam Srihari eventually joined the Congress despite initial speculation.
According to him, the same logic applies to Kalvakuntla Kavitha, and her joining the Congress should not shock anyone following Telangana politics closely.
Subtle Warning to Congress Leadership
While speaking about party affairs, Malreddy Ranga Reddy also sent a strong but indirect warning to the Congress leadership. He reiterated that he has been aspiring for a ministerial berth from the Hyderabad quota for a long time.
Key points raised by Malreddy:
- Hyderabad and its surrounding region have a population of nearly two crore
- Despite this, the region has not received adequate ministerial representation
- Ignoring this issue could hurt the party politically
He urged the party high command to seriously think about representation, hinting that neglect could lead to losses for Congress in the future.
Stand on Ranga Reddy District Name Change
Malreddy Ranga Reddy also dismissed speculation about changing the name of Ranga Reddy district. He made it clear that:
- He does not support any name change
- The talk of renaming the district is pure speculation
- Multiple municipalities can be created without altering the district’s identity
He appealed to the government not to change the face of Ranga Reddy district.
Real Estate Boom Near Future City
Highlighting development issues, Malreddy pointed out that areas around Future City are witnessing a sharp rise in land prices.
He noted that:
- Real estate value has increased rapidly
- Landowners are reluctant to sell their properties
- Development pressure is growing in the region
Past Defeat and Pharma City Opposition
Reflecting on past elections, Malreddy said he was defeated earlier because he opposed the proposed Pharma City. He claimed that if the project had gone ahead as planned, it would have caused pollution across a 50-kilometre radius, affecting public health and the environment.
Why These Comments Matter
Malreddy Ranga Reddy’s remarks come at a time when Telangana politics is seeing rapid shifts. His statement on Kalvakuntla Kavitha, combined with a warning to Congress leadership and comments on development issues, has added fresh momentum to political discussions in the state.
As speculation grows around possible party switches and cabinet expansion, these comments are expected to keep Telangana’s political landscape active in the coming days.
