MLA Raja Singh threatens to quit BJP for ignoring his appeal

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: Goshamahal BJP MLA T Raja Singh threatened to quit the party if it fails to appoint the person referred by him as the president of Golconda unit. He accused the leadership of appointing a person, who is maintaining close association with MIM, as president of Golconda unit, which comes under the jurisdiction of Goshamahal Assembly constituency represented by him. Stating that he was unable to bear the humiliation in the party, Raja Singh said if the party strongly felt that his services were not required then he would happily submit his resignation and made it clear that he was ready to leave the BJP. “When I urged the leadership to appoint the Golconda unit president either from a Backward Classes or SC community, the leadership turned a deaf ear to my request and appointed a person who is close to MIM,” he said.
