HYDERABAD: In a jolt to the BRS, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) Mayor Gadwal Vijayalakshmi is likely to join the Congress.
On Friday, Telangana Congress in-charge Deepa Das Munshi and MLA Rohin Reddy met Vijayalakshmi at her residence. Last month, Vijayalakshmi had also met Chief Minister Revanth Reddy at his residence.
Vijayalakshmi said that she would take decision on joining the Congress after speaking to her followers and activists. According to sources, Vijayalakshmi is likely to join Congress on March 23. Along with the mayor, 10 BRS corporators are likely to join the Congress.
After the meeting on Friday, Vijayalakshmi accompanied by Deepa Das Munshi went on to meet the Mayor's father and BRS Rajya Sabha MP Kesava Rao. The MP had been with the Congress before jumping to the BRS in 2014. While Deepa Das Munshi invited Kesava Rao to join the Congress, it is unclear on how Kesava Rao responded.
