Munugode MLA, Komatireddy Rajgopal Reddy will join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on August 21 in the presence of Amit Shah at a public meeting to be organised in Telangana.
Mr. Reddy, who resigned from the Congress and also announced his resignation as a legislator said Mr had invited him to join the BJP and would work to defeat the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS).
On the rumours of his brother Komatireddy Venkata Reddy also leaving the Congress, he said the Bhongir MP would take a decision at the right time. But there are lots of leaders who want to leave the Congress now as they see BJP as the sole party with the capacity to defeat the TRS.
