Hyderabad: Very difficult to find candidates in its stripped storeroom in Seemandhra, the Congress Party has come up with a unique offer - one ticket for two terms. As many of its representatives in Seemandhra have migrated to other parties and the former chief minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy has set up his own unit, Congress Party has been reportedly facing problems to find befitting candidates for looming general elections. The party even posed a threat from Pawan Kalyan’s Jana Sena.
The circumstances are very bad even for the local elections as the Congress could not find candidates for more than thousand seats. This is the unique experience the Congress Party has been facing for the first time in its long tenure. While most of the top cadre leaders have migrated to other parties, even the second cadre leaders are not showing interest to contest the polls with a hidden fear of surely losing the game for others.
The Congress Party has been pacifying the second cadre leaders. Reportedly, to alleviate their fears, Andhra Congress PCC Chief N Raghuveera Reddy is proposing that the candidates who enter the fray this time will be assured of tickets in the 2019 elections also.
According to sources, Raghuveera has made it clear that, win or lose the party would nominate these loyalists in 2019 elections as well. A final decision on the matter will be taken accordingly after he gets a nod from the Congress Party High Command.
