T Raja Singh Resigns As BJP MLA, Cites Leadership Concerns In Telangana Unit

New Delhi: BJP MLA T. Raja Singh has tendered his resignation from primary membership of the Bharatiya Janata Party, citing concerns over the appointment of Ramchander Rao as the new Telangana BJP state president. In a strongly worded letter addressed to Union Minister Kishan Reddy, Singh expressed the discontent of “lakhs of Karyakartas, leaders, and voters” who he believes are being ignored as the party prepares for its first opportunity to form a government in the state.

Singh, elected thrice consecutively from Goshamahal, stated that his decision was motivated not by personal ambition but by the collective pain and frustration of grassroots workers who feel "sidelined and unheard", a sentiment he claims is being driven by individuals with “personal interests” clouding the central leadership's judgment.

“At a time when BJP stands at the threshold of forming its first government in Telangana, such a choice raises serious doubts about the direction we are heading,” Singh wrote, warning that the party risks “avoidable setbacks” by overlooking seasoned local leaders.
