Are more and more dissidents in the TRS looking towards the BJP? Several TRS leaders, who have not been given posts of importance, are said to be getting in touch with the BJP these days. They are meeting BJP MLAs through common friends and are discussing on how to join the BJP.
For instance, this political leader, who had unsuccessfully contested elections on TRS ticket, is said to have met a BJP MLA recently at a function. He is said to have told the BJP MLA that despite spending huge amounts, the TRS leadership was ignoring him. He also is understood to have complained that as a party leader, he is not being given any importance by the MLAs. To this, the BJP MLA is said to have assured him that the BJP would take care of him and give him a suitable position if he joined the party.
This TRS leader is said to have helped a woman corporator from the BJP win the recent GHMC election. The corporator's relatives and husband are said to be still closer to the TRS leader. Sources say that few more leaders from Hyderabad are also actively considering joining the BJP.
Meanwhile, the BJP sources revealed that the party would focus on Telangana once the West Bengal elections are over. The party will target dissidents in TRS and will lure them into the BJP. Also, the party would chalk out a massive agitational programme against KCR.
