The Congress leaders from Telangana are requesting Sonia Gandhi to tour Telangana districts for the coming elections. Today Rahul Gandhi is addressing some meetings here near Nizamabad and other areas. The leaders here are trying to mobilise people for the same. Senior leader Madhu Yashki Goud is looking after the arrangements.
Congress leaders are of the opinion that they would project her as the architect behind giving statehood to Telangana. They could not encash this in the earlier election and now they want to tell people that it was Sonia who gave Telangana.
But ti may not work either way. The TRS chief has already completed some rounds of electioneering and he has conveyed the message a lot of times that it was his pressure and sacrifice which forced the Congress to give Telangana.
There is also a general belief in the political circles and people that wherever Rahul campaigns the party is bound to lose the election and the same has been happening since last several years.
