BJP Urges T Raja Singh to Vacate Assembly Seat, Contemplate Lok Sabha Run

(News from Sources)–

Hyderabad : Recent developments suggest that the central leadership of the Bharatiya Janata Party is applying significant pressure on Goshamahal MLA T Raja Singh to relinquish his Assembly seat and instead run for the Zaheerabad Lok Sabha constituency in the upcoming 2024 general elections. Insider sources indicate that the party leadership intends to offer the Goshamahal ticket to Vikram Goud, son of the late Mukesh Goud, a former minister. In the previous elections, Raja Singh emerged victorious against Mukesh Goud, who contested on a Congress ticket in 2014 and with the TRS (now BRS) in 2019.

Reports suggest that the BJP high command has intentionally delayed the process of revoking Singh’s suspension to exert pressure on him to vacate the Goshamahal seat in favor of Zaheerabad. However, sources reveal that Raja Singh is reluctant to comply with the party’s demand and is considering running as an independent candidate if denied a party ticket. Notably, Singh’s family members and supporters strongly oppose his departure from the constituency, emphasizing his significant local support base.

Who is Vikram Gaud ?

Vikram Goud is a young BJP leader. In 2011, he was elected as General Secretary of Youth Congress of then Andhra Pradesh. He contested as a Greater Hyderabad mayoral candidate from Indian National Congress in 2016 and in 2020, he was in-charge of Goshamahal Assembly constituency before he moved to Bharatiya Janata Party.
