Congress panel on poll debacle Abruptly Concluded Hyderabad visit

The the three-member panel constituted by the AICC under the leadership of senior party leader PJ Kurien to look into reason for party’s debacle in Lok Sabha elections in Telangana has abruptly concluded its Hyderabad visit. The Panel that reached the city on a three-day visit, concluded on the second day itself.

While PJ Kurian left for Kerala on Friday morning, the other two members spent the evening till 4 o’clock asking the opinions of MLAs and DCC presidents of the constituency. It is known that the defeated MP candidates who appeared before the committee and the winning MPs wrote the same script and said that they lost because the BRS vote bank went to the BJP.

The panel members said to be surprised with this uniform script. They wondered whether they all decided to say something before meeting them?

Rikabul Hasan, a member of the Kurian Committee, told the media that they will present their report to the authorities on the 21st of this month. The state leaders poured salt on PCC president and CM Revanth Reddy saying that the selection of candidates was not done properly so that they did not win the majority of MP seats despite being in power.

They alleged that leaders from other parties were included in the party before the elections and weak candidates were selected so that BJP candidates could win in four places. But all those who appeared before the committee did not mention any of these reasons. Are they afraid of the state leadership?

However, Ibrahimpatnam MLA Malreddy Rangareddy told the media that the reason why Congress candidates did not win in the Lok Sabha seats of Chevella, Malkajgiri, Hyderabad and Secunderabad in the joint Rangareddy and Hyderabad districts was because these districts were not represented in the cabinet.

Feroze Khan, who contested as Nampally MLA and lost, gave a different argument, saying that due to the poor alliance of the Congress party with the MIM in the parliamentary elections, the Hindu voters turned towards the BJP.

He complained that this was the reason for the defeat of Congress candidates in Hyderabad, Secunderabad, Malkajgiri, Chevella, Medak, Mahbubnagar, Karimnagar and Nizamabad seats. Feroze Khan is also known to have said that on the suggestion of MIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, the Congress party fielded a dummy candidate in the Hyderabad seat, and if he had been given a ticket from there, he would have definitely won.
