The screening committee held the counselling session on Tuesday and Wednesday also. The committee was assisted by PCC president N Uttam Kumar Reddy, CLP former leader in Assembly K Jana Reddy, CLP leader in council Shabbir Ali and state affairs incharge RC Khuntia.
According to sources, Bhakthacharan Das explained the details of the reports of the surveys they have obtained and told the leaders the reasons for denial of tickets to some leaders.
Das said that those who were denied tickets would be given recognition after the formation of the government. He said, “I am giving assurance on behalf of the AICC president Rahul Gandhi. Consider my word as Rahul’s. Your cooperation would be rewarded.”
The AICC leaders were able to convince aspirant of Suryapet R Damodar Reddy and asked him to contest from the Nalgonda parliamentary constituency as ticket would be given to Patel Ramesh Reddy.
Several strong aspirants who have been denied the tickets have been told that they would be given MLC or nominated posts if they help for the victory of the official candidate.
