Chiranjeevi’s Praja Rajyam Party joins Congress
Congress in Andhra Pradesh today got a major boost today when actor Chiranjeevi announced the merger of his Praja Rajyam Party with it that could come as a breather for the ruling party facing rebellion from Y S Jaganmohan Reddy and the sensitive Telangana issue. | |
After weeks of back channel talks between the two parties, actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi, a strong votary of a united Andhra Pradesh, met Congress chief Sonia Gandhi at her residence here for over 50 minutes and finalised his merger plans that could bring new political alignment in the state. "We have decided to merge the PRP with the Congress. It is in the best interests of the state of Andhra Pradesh... it is an historic occasion for (the state and the two parties)," he told reporters outside Gandhi’s residence. During the meeting, attended by Congress leaders A K Antony and Veerappa Moily, 55-year-old Chiranjeevi said he discussed with Sonia the current political situation in the state and various developmental projects that will benefit people. Moily said: "We welcome him. He has joined the Congress family from today." Troubled by the revolt of Jagan, son of late Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, the Congress had removed the ageing veteran K Rosaiah and brought in a much younger Kiran Kumar Reddy and had been working on other ways to strengthen the party. MLAs loyal to Reddy have been attending rallies and fasts organised by the young leader defying the party High Command. The PRP has 18 MLAs in the 294-member state Assembly and the Jagan camp claims to have the support of at least 25 MLAs. By roping in Chiranjeevi, the Congress, which has 155 MLAs, may be able to face a trial of strength in the Assembly more confidently. Of the 18 PRP MLAs, two are with Jagan and one is in support of Telangana movement. "No. Not all. I don’t have such motives. I will be working for the people as I am (doing) now," he said, replying to a volley of queries whether he would be part of the state government The Sonia-Chiranjeevi meeting came six days after Antony met the PRP chief in Hyderabad and asked him to come to New Delhi for talks with the Congress President. |
