GHMC Election Results 2020: Congress will bounce back soon: Mohammed Ali Shabbir
Stating that GHMC elections results were severely disappointing, former Minister and Congress senior leader Mohammed Ali Shabbir exuded confidence that Congress party would bounce back soon.
Hyderabad: Stating that GHMC elections results were severely disappointing, former Minister and Congress senior leader Mohammed Ali Shabbir exuded confidence that Congress party would bounce back soon.
Speaking to media persons at Gandhi Bhavan, Shabbir Ali said that the victory and defeat were not new for the 138-year-old Congress party. He said that the TRS, BJP and MIM have misled the voters with a false narrative and secured their votes by using all illegal means. "Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao has misused the official machinery, deployed entire TRS leadership and cadres from across Telangana State and used cash, liquor and other sops to lure the voters.
Similarly, BJP has roped in national leaders to win the GHMC elections. Despite these efforts, more than 50% of voters stayed away from polling and remaining voters got misled and voted for TRS, BJP and MIM," he said.
The Congress leader said that the Congress party's vote share has increased significantly in the present elections and soon it would bounce back to power. He reminded that the Congress party had faced a similar situation in 1994 when it won only 26 out of 294 Assembly seats. After facing a series of defeats in subsequent elections, the Congress party returned to power with a thumping majority in 2004 elections.
