Goshamahal MLA Raja Singh criticizes BJP state leadership, raises concerns over internal party biases, and issues political challenge before possible retirement
Goshamahal MLA Raja Singh has openly challenged BJP leaders, declaring he would quit politics if the party came to power in Telangana under the current state leadership committee. Speaking from Hyderabad, he criticized Telangana BJP President Ramachander Rao as a mere “rubber stamp” and expressed deep frustration over internal party politics and perceived injustices faced by workers, which ultimately led to his resignation from BJP primary membership.
He alleged that the newly formed committee was biased, favoring a small group from Secunderabad while sidelining leaders and workers from other districts and rural areas. Raja Singh questioned whether state leadership or Union Minister Kishan Reddy was responsible for this committee’s formation. Several prominent BJP MPs and MLAs reportedly acknowledged the validity of Singh’s criticisms privately, agreeing that the leadership could damage the party’s standing in Telangana.
Despite his resignation, Raja Singh insisted on his continued allegiance to BJP’s ideology and stated his intention to stay committed to Hindutva principles. He reaffirmed confidence in his popularity, having won the MLA seat three times by public support, and vowed to contest future elections to prove he remains a key political force at both Secunderabad and Goshamahal.
Raja Singh revealed that leaders from Uttar Pradesh, including Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, contacted him expressing concern over his resignation. He stated that lack of recognition despite repeated victories drove his decision to quit. Nonetheless, he emphasized his resignation was a protest aimed at protecting genuine party workers, promising to bring his concerns before the central BJP leadership.
He concluded by reaffirming his loyalty to the BJP and lamented that party loyalists who devote their lives to its cause are being marginalized. Singh pledged to continue speaking out on behalf of workers and dared state leaders to respond seriously to his resignation, warning of electoral consequences otherwise.
