He made it clear that the change in leadership at the State level BJP had damaged the party’s prospects in the recent Assembly elections. When the party was poised to win at least 25 seats in Telangana Assembly, the BJP had to contend with just 8 seats. Even in the ensuing Lok Sabha polls, the party was preferring newcomers ‘who do not share the same ethos as us.”
Hence he was forced to resign from the party, he said. He thanked the BJP national leadership especially Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for their untiring efforts to develop the country.
