While Gaddam himself has indicated the same, his son Vamsi will also contest from the Peddapalli Parliament seat. It is reported that the Congress High Command has also agreed to this.
Names Of Vivek And Vamshi On Third List
The Congress party announced the names of 100 candidates in two lists. But no one’s name has been announced so far from Chennuru. Initially, there were reports that this position would be allotted to the Communists. But, with Vivek’s entry into the party, the equations changed. There are reports that Vivek Venkataswamy’s name will appear in the third list of Congress. Meanwhile, it is known that Vivek’s brother ex-minister Vinod has been allotted the Bellampally ticket by Congress. It seems that the names of Vivek and Vamshi will be included in the third list which will be released soon. Because Vivek’s father, former Union Minister and senior Congress leader late Gaddam Venkataswamy played a key role in the First and Second Telangana Movements and fought a lot for Telangana.

He has a huge number of followers and admirers in Chennuru, Bellampally, Manchiryala, Dharmapuri, Ramagundam, Manthani and Peddapally constituencies irrespective of the parties. The leaders of that party are confident that Congress will win in these constituencies in the next election. The same opinion is being expressed at the field level as well. On the other hand, the leaders claim that his joining has given the party immense strength. It is said that if Vivek contests from Chennur constituency, Congress’s victory is certain.

Vivek, who entered politics as the successor of former Union minister late Gaddam Venkataswamy, won as MP from Peddapally in 2009. After that, he joined BRS and worked as a government advisor. During the 2018 elections, he joined the BJP after a BRS ticket was not given.
