BJP national general secretary and Karimnagar MP Bandi Sanjay today said that eight MLAs and five MPs of the BRS were in touch with his party.
Speaking with the media, Sanjay also said that there would be no alliance of the BJP with the BRS under any circumstances, and that his party would despite that win 17 of the 17 Lok Sabha seats.
"We are confident of winning 400 MP seats across the country. The BRS is unlikely to win even a single one. The BRS does not have any strong MP candidates, and those who are there are are trying to get out. KCR is begging the candidates to contest for the MP seats," he said.
He said that the BJP would welcome all those leaders who opposed KCR's corruption to join the BJP, including Harish Rao.
"The BRS and the Congress have a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). That is why the Congress is not taking any action against the BRS scams. Had a BJP government been formed in the State, KTR and KCR would have already been in jail. And the people are already sad that they voted for the Congress. Not just in Karnataka - even in Telangana, the Congress is cheating in the name of guarantees," he said.
