Congress suffered a setback in Munugode Assembly constituency in Nalgonda district after senior leader Palvai Sravanthi resigned on Saturday alleging that the party has become a commercial entity because of ‘one person’.
She is the second leader from Munugode to bid goodbye to the Congress. Earlier, Ch Krishna Reddy, who had aspired for a ticket, quit the party and joined the BJP to bag the party ticket from the same constituency.
Ms. Sravanthi is expected to join the BRS in the presence of party working president K.T. Rama Rao later on Saturday.
