In a big jolt to BJP in Telangana ahead of the Assembly elections, former MLA and member of the saffron party’s national executive, Komatireddy Raj Gopal Reddy on Wednesday resigned from the party and announced that he will join the Congress.

He said in a statement that people of Telangana now see Congress as an alternative to Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and respecting the people’s wish, he decided to join the party.

Raj Gopal Reddy had quit Congress to join the BJP in August last year. The MLA from Mungode also resigned from Assembly, necessitating the by-election. The industrialist politician had joined the BJP amid much fanfare at a public meeting in Mungode in the presence of Union Home Minister Amit Shah in August.
