It’s quite a thing to get praises from the rivals. Telangana Finance Minister T Harish Rao is one such rare politician who draws praise from not just his own party men, but also from the rival party leaders. If there is one thing that everyone in Dubbak bypoll is talking about, it is Harish Rao’s political acumen and hard work.

He has already completed one round of all the villages in the Dubbak constituency and met all the key leaders of the TRS. He has galvanized his party and motivated the cadres to work for TRS candidate Solipeta Sujatha. At the same time, he has convinced several ground level Congress workers to join the TRS. So, in every village he visited, there’s a bunch of BJP and Congress workers who joined the party in his presence.

Now he is undertaking a second round of the constituency and this time, he is ensuring that top leaders join the TRS. Both BJP and Congress rivals are unanimous about one thing. Their biggest rival is not the TRS nor is it KCR. It is Harish Rao and Harish Rao alone. They say that the contest has become Harish versus all and it is very difficult to upstage Harish Rao. Now you know which way the wind is blowing in Dubbak?
