T Jagga Reddy, a leader from the Congress party in Telangana, had a press conference in Vijayawada.
He asked the members of parliament (MPs) from Andhra Pradesh, who belong to different political parties, to work together to save the Vizag Steel Plant (VSP).
He said the VSP is very important for the people of Andhra and should not be given to private companies.
He also mentioned that the Congress party had kept its promises in the past and will do so again.
He wants the people of Andhra to elect 20 MPs from their state in the next elections so that Rahul Gandhi can become the prime minister and stop the privatization of VSP.
He also talked about the history of VSP and how it was started by Indira Gandhi.
T Jagga Reddy urged MPs from TDP, YSR Congress, and Jana Sena to fight for the Vizag Steel Plant (VSP).
