Are several TRS MLAs already in touch with the BJP? Are they planning to switch sides? Are these MLAs waiting just for the Huzurabad result to be out? If BJP's firebrand MLA from Dubbak, M Raghunandan Rao is to be believed, several TRS MLAs are in touch with the BJP leaders.
During a TV debate after the Huzurabad results were out, Raghunandan Rao claimed that four TRS MLAs were in touch with him. While refusing to reveal their names, he said that these MLAs were ready to leave the TRS and contest bypolls again. He said that several TRS MLAs were unhappy with the way the TRS was being run and were looking to come out of the party.
He said one Congress MLA from South Telangana too was in touch with him. Though he refused to identify the MLA in question, the rumour mill is confident that it could be Komatireddy Rajagopal Reddy.
He also dropped another bomb when he said that there would be another bypoll soon in erstwhile Karimnagar district. He said that it was only a matter of time before Chennamaneni Ramesh of Vemulawada assembly constituency would be disqualified on the issue of his citizenship. He said the BJP would be ready to fight this poll battle too.
