Speaking to the media in the capital, Uttam said: “Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, Deputy CM Batti Vikramarka and myself met the top leadership of our party and discussed many issues. We explained to them the progress we have achieved in implementation of farm loan waiver scheme. We requested them to come to Telangana after we complete the implementation of loan waiver in August.”
“We had a very successful visit to Delhi in terms of appraising our leadership about the political happenings in Telangana,” he added.
