Sudarshan Reddy's big statement regarding Rahul Gandhi
Before filing his nomination, B. Sudarshan Reddy praised Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, saying that when the streets are silent, the parliament becomes unruly.

Described the voice of the people as the strength in democracy
Reddy said that democracy is strengthened only when the voice of the people is raised. He reminded that Ram Manohar Lohia also said the same thing, that when the streets are silent, the parliament is not accountable. Rahul Gandhi's active participation and raising the issues of the people in the parliament is the greatest strength of democracy.
Expressed concern over the voter list in Bihar
B. Sudarshan Reddy expressed concern over the ongoing controversy regarding the voter list in Bihar. He said that universal adult suffrage is the foundation of India's democracy and any kind of discrepancy in it is a very serious matter. He warned that if people are deprived of their right to vote, it will be a big threat to democracy.
Convinced the government regarding caste census in Telangana
The former Supreme Court judge said that under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi, the opposition convinced the Telangana government to conduct a systematic caste census. He believes that this step will strengthen social justice and equality. He said that Rahul Gandhi is continuously working to protect democratic values and the rights of the people in the country.
Preparation of INDI alliance for Vice Presidential election
The INDI alliance has played a big bet by making B. Sudarshan Reddy the candidate for the Vice Presidential election. Reddy is considered one of India's most distinguished and progressive jurists.

Vice Presidential election will be held on September 9
B. Sudarshan Reddy will formally file his nomination today. The Vice Presidential election will be held on September 9, in which a direct contest will be seen between the opposition and the ruling coalition.

Right to vote is the biggest weapon: Reddy
