They said the public meeting will not only bolster the alliance’s campaign but will be significant for national politics. Vikramarka said the meeting would send a message to the whole country.

The Congress is leading the ‘grand alliance’ in Telangana which includes the TDP, Communist Party of India (CPI) and Telangana Jana Samithi (TJS).

TDP’s Telangana unit chief L. Ramna and leaders of CPI and TJS shared dais with UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi at a public meeting at Medchal near Hyderabad on Friday.

For the Khammam public meeting, the Congress has also invited CPI General Secretary S. Sudhakar Reddy and TJS leader M. Kodandaram.

Elections for 119-member Assembly are scheduled on December 7. The Congress has fielded candidates in 94 constituencies leaving the rest for its allies. TDP is contesting 13 seats.
