TDP leader Ganta Srinivas Rao dismisses speculation on joining YSRCP

Visakhapatnam, March 3 : Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leader Ganta Srinivasa Rao who recently submitted his resigned as the Visakhapatnam North MLA has condemned speculation that he would be joining the ruling Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party as mentioned by V. Vijayasai Reddy on Wednesday.
“Before, during and after the 2019 general elections, more than 100 times already, it was publicized (on shifting party). Sometimes they have even declared the dates and auspicious time that I will be joining YSRCP,” said Rao.
He said that the speculators even mentioned Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as one of the parties he would join and now they are saying YSRCP.
Though these kinds of reports are emerging, Rao said that he has been regularly condemning them but claimed that he had no clue as to why Reddy speculated on Wednesday.
“I do not know with what goal Reddy suddenly spoke on Wednesday. Reddy should answer as to what proposals I sent,” he said.
Reddy, a senior YSRCP leader and Rajya Sabha MP claimed that Rao was getting ‘attracted’ to the ruling party.
