BJP revokes suspension of Telangana MLA who made remarks against Prophet
This resolution was reached following Singh's response to the show cause notice issued by the party previously.
The Telangana BJP chief, G Kishan Reddy, announced on Sunday that the suspension of Goshamahal MLA T Raja Singh has been lifted by the BJP leadership.
This decision came after Singh provided an explanation in response to the show cause notice issued by the party earlier.
In August last year, Raja Singh was suspended from the party following his alleged controversial remarks against "Islam and Prophet Mohammed" in a video which was later pulled down by the social media platform on which it was uploaded.
He was arrested under the Preventive Detention Act. However, the Telangana High Court in November 2022 had set aside the PD Act invoked against him. Later, he was granted bail.
