Highly Doubt How Much We Can Fight Against Modi, Says Telangana Congress MLA

Days after 12 Congress leaders defected to the Telangana Rashtriya Samiti (TRS), another legislator, Komatireddy Raj Gopal Reddy, on Saturday hit out at the grand old party and hinted at switching over to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Speaking to media persons, he openly lauded the BJP and criticised the Congress leadership. "The BJP has chances to pick up well in Telangana in the coming days. People of India have given mandate in favour of Modi for the second time, showing their confidence in his decision-making. The BJP has the strength to take some revolutionary decisions, as they have strong leadership. I highly doubt how much Congress can fight against Modi."

Raja Gopal, brother of Congress MP Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, however, said he does not have any plans to switch from Congress to BJP. "I have yet not taken any decision on the matter. I will take the decision only after holding consultation with the party workers," he said.
