Former minister and BJP MLA Eatala Rajender has sought to dismiss reports about shifting party loyalties stating that it was “not as easy as changing clothes”. “I had never changed parties but I was thrown out of a party after working for two decades when the BJP took me into its fold and the central leadership has put focus on TS,” he said, on Tuesday.
“Like any other party, there are differences of opinion and there will be issues. But, I wish to clarify I never went to Delhi without an invitation. I only spoke about political scenario when asked and did not speak about any personality. The BJP is a national party and it will take its own time to sort out issues,” Mr. Rajender told a press conference at his residence.
“The party cadre have been waiting patiently for the last 45 years and our only objective is to defeat the BRS in the next election. Our party has been winning bypolls since 2019. It is growing stronger at the grassroots with Union Ministers and MPs touring the constituencies, even while the BRS has been losing out,” he claimed.
