Lok Sabha Polls: Decks Cleared for Sitting MPs of Telangana BJP

 - Sakshi Post

Hyderabad: As part of its preparations for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, chaired an organisational meeting in Shamshabad on Thursday. This is the  first visit of the Home Minister to the city after the Telangana assembly elections. 

During his visit to Telangana, Amit Shah, who is also the BJP's poll in-charge for Telangana, met the party’s core members. Later in the day, he will interact with the ‘Mandal’ chiefs of BJP from across the state at the Slokha convention. 

In a major relief to the Lok Sabha sitting members of parliament, Amit Shah has given the party’s nod to them to contest the forthcoming general elections from their respective parliamentary constituencies. 

In the recent state polls, BJP’s two sitting MLAs and three MPs bit the dust. Eatala Rajender and Raghunandan Rao lost their respective Huzurabad and Dubbaka seats to BRS rivals and Karimnagar MP Bandi Sanjay Kumar, Nizamabad MP Arvind Dharmapuri and Adilabad MP Soyam Bapu Rao were also defeated by the BRS candidates. It’s worth mentioning here that the BJP won four out of 17 seats from Telangana in the 2019 general elections and the party is looking to improve its tally in the upcoming elections.
