"You saw the loot of Telangana at the hands of KCR who destroyed your future and the dream of Telangana. Only one family got the money that was meant for you.You did not get schools, colleges and universities. It is the responsibility of the Congress Party to remove KCR and I invite the youth to join the Congress and bring this change," Gandhi said.

"Don't make the mistake of sitting in Hyderabad or coming to Delhi. Work hard and reach out to people. It is the people who will give you tickets," Gandhi said.
He stressed unity is paramount and party workers should not take tickets for granted.?
