Revanth Reddy exhorts youth to support Congress to restore democracy

Hyderabad, Dec 28: Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) President A Revanth Reddy, MP exhorted the youth to support and join the Congress party to restore democracy in the country and revive the process of development.
He was addressing the 137th Foundation Day celebrations of Congress party at Gandhi Bhavan on Tuesday after hoisting the party flag.
The TPCC President also recalled the role played by the Congress party in empowering youth and women. Further, he said that the Congress party always implemented a comprehensive agenda to ensure development of all sections of the society including SCs, STs, BCs, minorities and other weaker sections.
He said that the Congress was the only political party that thinks and speaks about all citizens without discriminating them on the basis of religion, caste, language and gender. He expressed serious concerns over rising religious intolerance due to the communal politics of BJP and its allies.
He said that the youth must play a role in restoring democracy in the country by strengthening the Congress party. He said that India’s glory could be restored only when the Congress returns to power, both in the country and Telangana State.
Revanth Reddy said the BJP, TRS and other parties who are questioning the contribution of the Congress party in nation-building were completely ignorant about India’s history. He said if they want to learn what the Congress party did for the country, then they should simply read the history of India for the last 137 years.
He said it was the Congress vision that transformed India into a global leader on various fronts and an economic superpower. However, he said that the country’s image and rank were badly hit after BJP came to power in 2014.
Former PCC Presidents V. Hanumantha Rao, Ponnala Lakshmaiah and MP Uttam Kumar Reddy, senior leaders including Bose Raju, Sampath Kumar, G Chinna Reddy, T. Jagga Reddy, Madhu Yashki Goud, Dr. Mallu Ravi, Kodanda Reddy, Kusum Kumar, Padmavathi Reddy and others were present.
