KHAMMAM | July 10, 2026
Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Friday declared that the Congress Party would return to power with a decisive mandate in the 2029 Assembly elections, asserting that the party would win 117 of the proposed 182 Assembly seats and 20 of the expected 26 Lok Sabha seats in Telangana following the proposed delimitation exercise.
Addressing the ‘Rythu Aashirwad Sabha’ at Jagannadhapuram in Khammam district after releasing Rythu Bharosa assistance to farmers and issuing e-Pattadar Passbooks, the Chief Minister urged Congress workers to work towards making Rahul Gandhi the next Prime Minister of India.
Reiterating the slogan “Aur Ek Baar, Congress Sarkar,” Revanth Reddy predicted that the next Assembly elections would be held in May or June 2029 instead of December 2028. He said Telangana’s Assembly strength would increase from 119 to 182 seats, while Lok Sabha constituencies would rise from 17 to 26 after delimitation.
“I am predicting the election results 36 months in advance. Congress will return to power by winning 117 Assembly seats and 20 Lok Sabha seats. I swear by Lord Rama of Bhadrachalam that this is the resolve of Congress workers,” the Chief Minister said.
Taking a sharp swipe at the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), Revanth Reddy alleged that the opposition was circulating “fake surveys” to create confusion among the public. He claimed the BRS had already been rejected by the people in the 2023 Assembly elections and accused its leadership of indulging in misinformation instead of constructive politics.
The Chief Minister also launched a fresh attack on former Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) and the BRS leadership, stating that the Congress would politically defeat the “Kalvakuntla family” in the next electoral battle. He challenged senior BRS leader Harish Rao to publicly swear that he would never join the BJP, alleging growing distrust within the BRS leadership.
On the Kaleshwaram project, Revanth Reddy cautioned against demands to release water through the damaged Medigadda barrage. He warned that doing so could endanger Bhadrachalam and lead to the submergence of 44 villages in Khammam district, asserting that public safety must take precedence over political considerations.
Highlighting his government’s welfare initiatives, the Chief Minister said the Congress administration has continued and expanded support for farmers and weaker sections. He listed the implementation of Rythu Bharosa, loan waiver, fine rice distribution, 200 units of free electricity, Indiramma housing, and enhanced agricultural investment assistance of ₹12,000 per farmer as key achievements.
Responding to a request from Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka, Revanth Reddy announced the sanction of an Engineering College for Madhira, adding that the government remains committed to strengthening education and infrastructure across Telangana.
The Chief Minister also recalled the massive public meeting held in Khammam before the 2023 Assembly elections during the induction of Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy into the Congress, describing it as the beginning of the political resurgence that ultimately brought the party to power in Telangana.
