HYDERABAD: Telangana Congress president A
Revanth Reddy’s almost 30-minute meeting with AIMIM floor leader
Akbaruddin Owaisi in the assembly on Monday had the political grapevine buzzing.
There is a clear direction from
AICC leadership not to have any alliance with AIMIM. While there were no details,
Akbaruddin and leaders close to Revanth told TOI it was a courtesy call as the latter had come to submit a representation to speaker Pocharam Srinivas Reddy for allotment in MLA quarters under MPs quota. But sources did not rule out the possibility of two having discussed politics.
“We had coffee. Nothing much,” Akbar said, adding that Revanth enquired about his health as they had met after a long time.
Sources said Revanth had to be in a Nampally court in the note-for-vote case, but dropped by the assembly as there was still some time for the hearing.
