Sanjay said, "During GHMC elections, many BJP leaders paid their visit to the Bhagyalakshmi temple and offered prayers. We promised (to the goddess) that once the GHMC elections are done, the BJP corporators who will win in the elections will all pay a visit to the temple and take oath in front of goddess Bhagyalakshmi.
Hyderabad, December 18: The newly-elected 48 Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) corporators of Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) took an oath at the Bhagyalakshmi Temple in Charminar on Friday. The BJP State president of Telangana Bandi Sanjay and party MLA Raja Singh were present with the corporators who also paid their visit to the temple.
Sanjay said, "During GHMC elections, many BJP leaders paid their visit to the Bhagyalakshmi temple and offered prayers. We promised (to the goddess) that once the GHMC elections are done, the BJP corporators who will win in the elections will all pay a visit to the temple and take oath in front of goddess Bhagyalakshmi. So, today along with all the 48 Corporators and MLA Raja Singh, we have offered our prayers to the goddess."
He stated that BJP stands for the development of Hyderabad and will do what is necessary to receive funds from the centre to develop the city. "The misgovernance of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) president and Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao who walks holding hands of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM) destroyed the city of Hyderabad. Being fed up with this TRS government, people were seeking for a change and have voted for the BJP corporators in the GHMC elections," added Sanjay.
