Sailajanath appointed APCC president

New Delhi: The Congress party on Thursday appointed Dr Sake Sailajanath as Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president and Tulasi Reddy and Shaik Mastan Vali as working presidents.

In a statement, Congress general secretary KC Venugopal said the party appreciates the contribution of outgoing PCC president N Raghuveers Reddy.

After Andhra Pradesh Assembly elections in 2019, the Congress party faced disastrous defeat, following which, Reddy stepped down voluntarily, owing moral responsibility to the party’s defeat.
