Hyderabad: An embarrassing situation surrounded the Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) chief Revanth Reddy at the party headquarters, Gandhi Bhavan on Tuesday.
Supporters of former minister and Nagarkurnool ticket contender Nagam Janardhan Reddy who also belongs to the same party tried to stop the TPCC president from entering the party office.
They demanded a ticket for their leader Janardhan Reddy and also claimed that the tickets of the party were being sold.
On Tuesday, the TPCC president was at the Gandhi Bhavan to attend a few meetings when supporters of Janardhana Reddy tried to stop him and raised slogans demanding a ticket for their leader.

Angered over the delay, his supporters raised slogans against the party leadership in front of the TPCC chief at Gandhi Bhavan.
