Cong Telangana unit leaders meet Rahul Gandhi in Delhi

Congress leaders in Telangana Friday met party president Rahul Gandhi in Delhi and discussed the partys preparations for the upcoming assembly elections in the state.

The leadership gave 'in principle' nod to the proposed electoral alliances but stressed on retaining seats where the party is in a position to win, Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president N Uttam Kumar Reddy said.

The partys state leaders have been advised not to make inappropriate comments to the media and to stay united for the elections, he said.
