Purandeshwari Says She Is Clean!

Former union minister Purandeshwari, who joined BJP, said she had left the Congress party to do justice to Seemandhra region and described the allegations being levelled against her by Congress leaders as baseless.

She said it was baseless and false the statement of union minister Jairam Ramesh that she has 1,000 acres of land near Ramayanpatnam. She said the allegations are being leveled against her as she fought for rights of Seemandhra people.

“I had asked the Centre to develop sea port at Ramayanpatnam along with Duggirajapatnam and that is the reason they (Congress) are targeting me. As per Jairam Ramesh’s claim, if he knows the survey number of the land, I will go and see my land”, she quipped.

“It is true the Congress gave me respect and I never worked against the party interests. I am not quitting the party for my selfish interests. Special package and special status to the Seemandhra was given due to pressure from BJP. Therefore, I decided to join BJP as I can do justice to Seemandhra region if I worked in a national party. I have resigned the day when Telangana bill was passed in the Lok Sabha”, she disclosed.
