This puts the party at danger of preventable failures in addition to undermining the sacrifices made by grassroots workers. Raja Singh Leaves BJP made it clear that his letter was not motivated by selfish goals. “With the blessings of the people and the party’s support, I have been elected three times in a row as a diligent worker. However, I find it hard to remain silent or act as though nothing is wrong today,” he remarked. “This is not about personal ambition; this letter reflects the pain and frustration of countless loyal BJP workers and supporters who feel sidelined and unheard.” Raja Singh Leaves BJP “It was our finest chance in years to win Telangana over to the BJP.” Even though I am leaving the party, I am still totally dedicated to the Hindutva philosophy, to upholding our religion, and to helping the people of Goshamahal.  I’m going to keep speaking up and support the Hindu community even more firmly.” He referred to it as a “difficult” but “necessary” decision, saying that many people’s silence should not be interpreted as acquiescence. Not only do I speak for myself, but also for the innumerable employees and voters who supported us out of faith and are now disillusioned. I respectfully request that our senior leadership—Hon. Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji, JP Nadda ji, BJP National President, Shri Amit Shah ji, and Shri BL Santhosh ji—rethink this direction.
