Sharmila, Vijayamma to contest Telangana polls!

It is now official. YSR Telangana Party president Y S Sharmila on Thursday announced that her party would contest in all 119 assembly constituencies in Telangana in the upcoming elections scheduled to be held on November 30.

As expected, Sharmila decided to put an end to the suspense over the merger of her party with the Congress, which insisted that she must go to Andhra as she has no role in Telangana.

After waiting for a long time to get a positive response from the Congress high command, Sharmila finally called for a meeting of her party leaders and followers at her Lotus Pond residence and announced that the party would contest all the 119 assembly seats in Telangana elections.

Sharmila made it clear that the party is primarily dedicated to the cause of the people and committed to bring back YSR’s golden rule.

On the occasion she also announced that she would contest from Palair as promised earlier.

“If needed, my mother, Vijayamma too will contest for the people of Telangana,” she said.

"Two years after we started our journey, today YSRTP stands as the sole party committed to the cause of people. With tireless padayatra covering 3800 km, we won the hearts of the people and we were the first and most honest in fighting for every cause and concern of the people of Telangana. Our intense fight against unemployment was a reason why KCR released at least a few job notifications,” she said.

She said her noble intention to take the step towards merger with Congress was to ensure the anti-establishment vote was not divided. The autocratic rule doesn’t deserve another term.

“Now it’s time to move on and fight most important battle for the state and declare with pride that we are ready,” she said.

Sources said Sharmila has invited applications from interested candidates to contest the elections in all the constituencies in Telangana.

“We shall give tough fight to all the contenders,” sources said.
