"etala-rajender"

With Telangana gearing up for local body elections, the government's decision to raise BC reservations to 42 percent has triggered concerns among aspirants. A recent Maharashtra High Court ruling against exceeding the 50 percent reservation cap has cast a shadow over the legality of Telangana’s move.

BJP MP Etala Rajender from Malkajgiri has publicly denied rumours of his defection to another party, calling the reports false and misleading. In a statement posted on X, he criticised certain media outlets and YouTube channels for spreading misinformation and urged them not to tarnish his reputation.

After losing out the BJP State President post which he was aspiring, Bandi Sanjay is more insecure of being out news and has become a mockery when his own party leaders like Etala Rajender have questioned his theatrics in open which has weakened not only his leadership traits but also exposed his incapability as MoS Home.

Though rivalry between the two groups has existed for some time, the Union Minister’s recent comments that the party would not encourage leaders working for individuals have reignited the tension.

Tensions between Telangana BJP MPs Etala Rajender and Bandi Sanjay came out in the open, with Rajender accusing Sanjay of conspiracy and defamation. At a meeting in Shamirpet, he vowed to fight politically and ensure tickets for his supporters in Huzurabad

BRS president and former Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) will appear before the Justice P.C. Ghose Commission on June 11, in connection with the ongoing probe into the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project

Setting specific dates for their appearance, the Commission wanted the former Chief Minister to appear on June 5, while Harish Rao and Rajender were summoned on June 6 and June 9 respectively.

Leaders in both the parties are anxious as their national leadership was taking its own time in addressing issues plaguing the State units

Revanth assured residents along the Musi riverbed that no pressure would be exerted on them to vacate their houses.

Revanth Reddy did a complete volte face on Thursday, asking who ever quoted such a figure, when the cost of the agreement entered into by the government for the project was only Rs.141 crore.

“Let us visit Chaitanyapuri or any other areas. If residents appreciate Revanth Reddy and his government, I will quit politics and tender unconditional apology,” Etala Rajender said.

It is learnt that several senior leaders are strongly opposing Rajender being made the State unit chief.

The situation has leaders in both parties lobbying hard for the coveted post.

With organisational elections for the positions of both the national and State president due in July, the BJP leadership has reportedly decided to relieve Kishan Reddy from the responsibility and hand over the reins of the State BJP unit to Rajender.

Etala Rajender should be ashamed to question the BRS over the crop loan waiver as it was during his stint as Finance Minister in the then BRS government that the crop loans amounting to Rs.16,000 crore were waived in Telangana.

The former Health Minister said that he would give top priority to providing health facilities to the common man.

Addressing a public meeting after laying the foundation for the elevated corridor at Kandlakoya on Saturday, the Chief Minister recalled the BJP’s miserable defeat during the 2004 elections.

Sources say Muralidhar Rao felt insulted after he was not considered for the Malkajgiri seat, where he had been working for a long time in the hope that the party would field him from the constituency.

Etala Rajender, who filed his nomination for Huzurabad assembly constituency on behalf of the BJP, mentioned in the affidavit that he has no personal vehicle, and had only Rs 1 lakh as cash in hand
