The mercurial Congressman T. Subbarami Reddy, 68, has moved from bizarre to ridiculous. He wore an Arab dress while campaigning for the June 12 by-election to the Lok Sabha from Nellore. His opponent, Mekapati Rajamohan Reddy, who resigned the seat to contest again on a YSR Congress ticket, is likely to win. Subbarami has won twice before, but did not need an Arab camouflage; a Congress ticket was sufficient. This time, under pressure, he chose to woo the 6 per cent Muslim vote with attire gifted by the Bara Shaheed Dargah in Hyderabad. But God has been kind in one way; He will continue to be an MP even if he loses. He is in Rajya Sabha till summer of 2014.
