Minister Ponnam Prabhakar emphasised the need for coordinated efforts to ensure victory in the Jubilee Hills Assembly bypoll. He instructed leaders to work unitedly and strive for a massive majority, irrespective of the party’s candidate.

Addressing a preparatory meeting with booth in-charges and key Congress leaders of the Erragadda division in Jubilee Hills constituency at the Minister’s Quarters here on Saturday, he stressed the importance of grassroots mobilisation and called for the immediate formation of the Erragadda Division Coordination Committee and Booth Coordination Committees.

The Minister assured that public issues in Erragadda would be resolved on a priority basis, noting that a booth-wise feedback mechanism would be put in place across all 46 booths in the division. He said pending development works would be expedited and that the GHMC Commissioner and Hyderabad Collector would soon tour the area to review road projects. “I will personally undertake a padayatra in the division along with officials to address people’s grievances,” he said.

Minister Prabhakar directed the cadre to take the government’s flagship welfare and development schemes to every household.

Later, Minister Tummala Nageshwara Rao said Congress’s victory in the Jubilee Hills by-election would usher in the State’s continued development. “The Chief Minister’s vision for Hyderabad’s future rests on Congress winning this election. People must decide who can safeguard their children’s future and the city’s development,” he said.

Stressing the need for a meticulous strategy, he urged the cadre to coordinate at the booth level and maintain detailed electoral data. “This by-election will echo across other States. We must achieve a significant majority in every booth,” he added.
