Reddy says: TPCC plans to use modern technology for elections

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president N Uttam Kumar Reddy today said the party plans to use modern technology to select candidates for the next Legislative Assembly elections in the state.

Reddy, who held a teleconference with manual-level party presidents and other leaders, asked them to intensify enrolment of activists for the party's 'Shakti' app. The Congress workers who have registered themselves with the 'Shakti' programme would be able to give their opinion on the selection of candidates, he said, according to a party release.

Asking the party functionaries to be ready for early polls, Reddy directed them to check their names in the electoral rolls as the authorities have allegedly deleted names of thousands of Congress workers from the list.

He also asked them to check the names of their family members, relatives and neighbours in the electoral rolls. Legislative Assembly polls in the state are scheduled to be held simultaneously with the Lok Sabha elections next year.
