BJP MLA Raja Singh has made controversial remarks, stating his intent to distance himself from petty politics and focus on serving the people of his constituency. In his comments, Singh emphasized that he would move away from minor political games and engage in religious activities. He also expressed his goal of transforming India into a Hindu nation.
Singh made these remarks in the presence of key BJP leader Lakshman, as another prominent leader, Ala Purushottam, is set to join the BJP. Purushottam, a significant figure in the Goshamahal constituency represented by Raja Singh, had previously left the party after Singh was given a ticket in the last elections and later joined the BRS.
Recent reports suggest that the BJP high command is considering actions to address Raja Singh’s growing discontent within the party. Singh has reportedly become a disruptive force, leading to the party’s decision to induct Purushottam.
In the 2018 assembly elections, Singh was the only BJP candidate to win, but in the 2023 elections, eight BJP candidates emerged victorious. Singh, assuming the position of leader of the legislative party would be his, was disappointed when the high command appointed Nirmal MLA Maheshwar Reddy to the role. This decision contributed to his ongoing dissatisfaction with the party.
Singh also remained absent from the parliamentary election campaign, sparking speculation about his diminishing role within the party. His lack of participation in major BJP events, including the Musi Nidhra program, has further fueled discussions that the party leadership may be looking to sideline him. His recent statements about prioritizing public service over petty politics have added to the growing speculation.
