In a dramatic development, firebrand BJP MLA Raja Singh announced his resignation from the primary membership of the Bharatiya Janata Party on Monday, expressing outrage over the likely appointment of Ramchander Rao as the next Telangana BJP president. Singh addressed his resignation letter to Union Minister and current state BJP chief G Kishan Reddy, asking him to inform the Telangana Legislative Assembly Speaker of his departure from the party.
Singh stated the decision to appoint a new state president came as a shock not just to him but to lakhs of dedicated Karyakartas, leaders, and voters who have steadfastly supported the party through highs and lows. “With great sadness, I have decided to resign from the primary membership of the Bharatiya Janata Party,” Singh wrote, adding that his resignation reflects the disappointment of countless loyal supporters who feel ignored by the central leadership.
He alleged that certain individuals with personal agendas had misled the central leadership, undermining the sacrifices of grassroots workers and risking setbacks for the party. Singh emphasized that many capable senior leaders, MLAs, and MPs in Telangana were better suited to lead the party forward.
Having been elected three times consecutively from Goshamahal with the people’s blessings, Singh said he could no longer stay silent or pretend everything was fine. He clarified that his resignation was not about personal ambition but stemmed from pain and frustration shared by many BJP workers and supporters.
Despite his resignation, Singh asserted his unwavering commitment to Hindutva and his dedication to serving Hindu Dharma and his constituents.
