"I was denied appointment of the Chief Minister several times and the ministers of TRS are working without self respect. I was sent back from KCR's farmhouse and Pragathi Bhavan a number of times. There are differences between me and KCR from the past five years. The same is the case of Harish Rao. KCR never allowed me to explain about what happened in the land scam. An investigation is happening and before the report is out, I was sacked. I am working round the clock for the party and the state from the past 19 years. I am announcing my resignation for MLA post and for TRS party" told Etela Rajender in his press conference.
