Film actor Vijayashanthi, who quit the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and joined the Congress on Friday, said the BJP lost stakes in Telangana the day Bandi Sanjay was removed as the state party chief as a part of the agreement between the BJP and the Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS).
Addressing a press conference in Hyderabad on Saturday, Ms. Vijayashanthi claimed that she had opposed the removal of Mr. Bandi Sanjay as it would be a disaster, but a ‘plant’ in the BJP was hell-bent on changing the president. Somehow, the allegations and cases against him for allegedly grabbing the assignment lands went cold after his successful campaign to remove Bandi Sanjay, she said pointing finger at BJP leader Eatala Rajender.
She alleged that the BRS and the BJP were together and she had waited for long time to see if the BJP would take action against Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao for his corruption. I decided to quite realising that there won’t be any action against KCR, she said.
