Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], October 25 (ANI): Telangana Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA T Raja Singh on Wednesday alleged that he has received threat calls from unknown numbers claiming to eliminate him and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
“Around 2 pm I received a call from an unknown number, it was a 15-digit number. They want to harm me and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath,” he alleged.
He further claimed that the number’s caller ID belonged to an Islamic country. “That person is being constantly briefed about my every movement by a person who is a Hyderabad resident,” he added.
“He knows about my family members, which bullet I ride, when I step out for campaigning etc,” Raja Singh alleged.
The BJP leader further said that he had encountered threatening calls in the past, and it is imperative that the police address this particular threat.
“Unfortunately, whenever I received a threatening call, I gave a complaint in writing but no enquiry or any action was taken or arrested anyone. I am not scared of such phone calls,” he added.
Earlier on October 22, the Bharatiya Janata Party said on Sunday it has revoked the suspension of Telangana MLA T Raja Singh following his reply to the show-cause notice issued by the party after a row was triggered by his remarks against Prophet Muhammad.
The MLA was suspended in August and issued a show-cause notice.
“Under suspension, the Central Disciplinary Committee of the party issued a show cause notice to you. This refers to your reply to the show cause notice. Your reply and explanation offered therein have been considered by the committee. Basis your reply, the committee has decided to revoke your suspension forthwith,” Om Pathak, member secretary of the party’s Central Disciplinary Committee, said in a notification.
Earlier, just after his suspension, Singh had told the media that he was confident that the BJP would revoke his suspension soon, and would contest the Telangana Assembly polls from the Goshamahal constituency on the BJP ticket.
Telangana is set to witness an intriguing triangular contest between the BRS, Congress, and BJP.
In the previous Assembly elections in 2018, the BRS won 88 of the 119 seats, hogging 47.4 per cent of the total vote share. The Congress finished a distant second with 19 seats and a vote share of 28.7 per cent.
Polls in Telangana will be held on November 30 and counting of votes will take place on December 3. (ANI)
