Hyderabad: Telangana Rakshana Sena (TRS) president K. Kavitha on Wednesday urged graduates across Telangana to support the party’s TRS candidates in the upcoming Graduate MLC elections. She asked voters to use the polls to question the ruling Congress government and what she described as an ineffective Opposition.
Addressing a press conference at the party office in Banjara Hills, Kavitha introduced the party’s nominees, Dr. Nalamasa Srikanth Goud and Akash Kolluri. She appealed to graduates in the Hyderabad–Rangareddy–Mahabubnagar constituency to elect Akash Kolluri. Meanwhile, she sought support for Dr. Nalamasa Srikanth Goud in the Nalgonda–Khammam–Warangal constituency.
Kavitha criticised the Congress government and claimed it had lost political credibility. She also questioned the role of the Opposition, urging graduates to use the elections to hold both sides accountable. According to her, the polls offer an opportunity to bring a new generation of political leadership into public life.
Why Kavitha backs a new generation of leaders
The TRS president described the party’s nominees as educated young leaders from modest backgrounds. She said they were entering politics without relying on money power or family dynasties. Additionally, she urged farmers and young people to support the candidates.
Kavitha used a farmers’ experience as an analogy for the political change she wants. She compared it to replacing a blown fuse to restore electricity. Through this comparison, she called on voters to back the TRS candidates and help build a new generation of political leadership.
She also stressed the importance of graduate voter registration. Kavitha urged every eligible graduate to register as a voter and take part in the democratic process. She called on them to exercise their franchise in the upcoming MLC elections.
The party has fielded Akash Kolluri in the Hyderabad–Rangareddy–Mahabubnagar constituency and Dr. Nalamasa Srikanth Goud in the Nalgonda–Khammam–Warangal constituency. Kavitha made the appeal alongside both nominees at the Banjara Hills press conference. Her message focused on graduate participation and support for younger political leaders.
