Naidu Cheated Me, Says Ex-TDP Minister

Naidu Cheated Me, Says Ex-TDP Minister

Senior Telugu Desam Party leader and former minister J R Pushparaj, who was a serious contender for the party nomination for Rajya Sabha, is now crying foul over denial of the opportunity.

Pushparaj, who hails from SC community, alleged that Naidu had cheated him in the last minute by denying him the Rajya Sabha nomination.

“I was assured of the seat. I was confined to a room and not allowed to come out. And finally, Naidu has selected T G Venkatesh, only because he is rich and influential,” he said.

The former minister said there were no values in the TDP now.

“It is not the same TDP which was founded by N T Rama Rao. There is no place for weaker sections and only rich and mighty are getting preference,” he lamented.
