If
reports are to be believed, then the Congress high command is expected
to make former Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar contest as the party
candidate for Warangal Lok Sabha seat as part of the forthcoming by-elections.
There are media reports that the party high command instructed Warangal
District Congress Committee to pass a resolution in this regard.
The resolution would be requesting Meira Kumar to contest the MP by-elections from Warangal seat. Once the resolution is sent to the high command, after the candidature being discussed at the TPCC meet in a day or two, political equations are expected to change swiftly.
Former Deputy PM Babu Jagjivan Ram
As the daughter of former Deputy PM Babu Jagjivan Ram, Meira Kumar is a woman and hence, many of her political rivals would think twice before attacking her. Moreover she is actually from Madiga community,which is a dominant force in Warangal region.
Most importantly Meira Kumar enjoys the credibility of playing a crucial role in getting the AP Reorganisation Bill-2014 clearing in Lok Sabha in a controversial atmosphere, which resulted in forming the Telangana State. Telangana voters have rejected the parties of Soniamma and Chinnamma (BJP’s Sushma Swaraj) last year and now finally we have to see if they would approve speakeramma.
