Ponnala Prabhakar, former minister and prominent Congress leader, kicked off his parliamentary campaign with a massive rally in the Mancherial Mandal Center, garnering immense support from women activists.
Addressing a corner meeting at Mancherial Chowrasta, Prabhakar reiterated his commitment to the development of the region and sought blessings for Rajendar Rao, the Congress MP candidate from Karimnagar.
The rally witnessed a significant turnout of women activists, showcasing their solidarity with Prabhakar and the Congress party.
Meanwhile, amidst the campaign fervor, BJP MP aspirant Bandi Sanjay expressed confidence in his candidacy but faced resistance from BRS activists, urging support for Prabhakar.
Rao, a scion of former MLA Jagapathi Rao, seeks to continue the legacy of his family in serving the constituency.
Switching gears, Prabhakar also touched upon the ongoing IPL season, promising to address concerns regarding gas and essential commodity prices if elected to power.
Underlining the achievements of the Congress government, Prabhakar highlighted initiatives such as free bus travel for women within 48 hours of assuming office, and the provision of gas connections to 500 households.
In a direct appeal to farmers, he pledged to waive off agricultural loans worth Rs. 2 lakh, in addition to providing a bonus of 500 rupees per quintal of crops.
Furthermore, Prabhakar criticized the incumbent BJP government’s handling of the state’s affairs, calling attention to the doubling of electricity tariffs and the proposed construction of KCR Double Bedroom houses.
Asserting the Congress’s commitment to welfare measures, he stated, “We aim to build 3,500 Indira Amma houses in every constituency, providing financial relief to farmers and addressing their loan burdens.”
As the political discourse intensifies, the electorate eagerly awaits the outcome of the upcoming parliamentary elections, with contenders vying for their support and trust.
