In a major political development in Warangal, former Wardhannapet MLA Aroori Ramesh resigned from the BJP’s primary membership on Monday, January 26, and announced his decision to rejoin the BRS. His resignation letter was submitted to the state BJP leadership, marking a significant shift in the local political landscape.
Ramesh, who had left the BRS during the last general elections to contest the Warangal parliamentary seat as a BJP candidate, had reportedly been distancing himself from party activities for some time. Sources indicate that the recent local body election outcomes and the prevailing political dynamics in his constituency prompted him to return to the BRS. Factors such as limited recognition within the BJP and difficulties in maintaining his cadre are believed to have influenced his decision. Addressing the media, Ramesh said the move was taken in consideration of his political future and at the request of his supporters.
Ramesh is expected to formally join the BRS on Wednesday in a massive rally with his followers. The ceremonial event will see him receive the “Gulabi Kanduva” (pink scarf) in the presence of former Chief Minister and BRS chief K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) or Working President K. T. Rama Rao. BRS leaders expect his return to bolster the party’s strength in Warangal, and political analysts are closely watching the potential implications of this development on the region’s political scenario.
