Will remain in TRS, says AP Jithender Reddy

HYDERABAD:

Sitting MP of Mahbubnagar AP Jithender Reddy

, who has been denied a TRS ticket to contest from the seat again, said he was probably dropped by TRS president and chief minister

K Chandrasekhar Rao

believing some canards spread against him. "I think I was denied ticket because of allegations made by some people against me. I leave it to the conscious of the MLAs and expect them to do some soul-searching," he said.

Some TRS MLAs from Mahbubnagar allegedly complained to KCR that Jithender Reddy had not cooperated with them during assembly elections. He said despite not getting a ticket, he would be in TRS and will do whatever party leader KCR will direct him to do.
