Unlike other Congress leaders who were clueless on how to combat KCR’s popularity, Revanth Reddy boldly took to the streets and led from the front.

With Telangana s outstanding public debt reportedly being estimated at Rs 3,57,059 crore, the path ahead for Reddy may not be smooth. If his regime fulfills the promise of “free travel for women” in state-run buses, it will have to replenish Rs 2,500 crore annually to the Transport Corporation.
