Congress will get absolute majority: Jairam Ramesh

KARIMNAGAR/ANDHRA PRADESH: Union Minister Jairam Ramesh today expressed confidence in Congress securing an absolute majority in the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.

Addressing a public meeting in Karimnagar town, Ramesh said the credit for forming Telangana goes to the Congress party, though every political party has been claiming credit.

Even after the passage of Telangana Bill in the Lok Sabha, BJP leader Venkaiah Naidu criticised the bill for political gain, he claimed.

Ramesh also said national status would be given to Pranahita and Chevella projects.
