Ex-minister Pushpaleela to join BJP

Former Social Welfare minister and Congress Leader Kondru Pushpaleela is planning to switch her loyalty to BJP.

She is expected to join the BJP in the presence of the party national president Rajnath Singh who is in Hyderabad today.

Recently, Pushpaleela launched attack against Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy alleging that the latter was showing discrimination against the Dalits.

She was elected from Ibrahimpatnam in Ranga Reddy district and served as social welfare ministry during TDP regime. Later, she joined Congress and failed to get ticket either from Chevella or Vikarabad during 2009 elections.
