‘Roja’s entry spells doom for any party’

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) women's wing president and noted south Indian actress Roja on Monday resigned to her parent party. Roja has sent her resignation through fax to the party office at 3.30 pm. She also thanked the party for supporting her for 10 long years.
She accused party leadership for its double standards in allotting party tickets in the recent assembly elections. Roja alleged that a section of party leaders were responsible for her defeat in the 2004 and 2009 assembly elections.
Though it is learnt that she is going to resign to TDP and all set to join Congress party, the sudden demise of chief minister Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy raised doubts about her leaving TDP. But, putting all the speculations aside she has resigned to the party.
Roja's resignation from TDP would be a setback to the main opposition as the actress is regarded as an articulate women leader. The Congress party will take her in or not is a million dollar question now.
However, Praja Rajyam Party (PRP) Mahila President Shobha Rani termed her as an ‘Iron Leg lady’ because when she joined TDP, Chandrababu Naidu was almost finished in the land mine blast planted by naxalites on the Tirupati-Alipiri highway. Even before her joining the Congress, one of the most dynamic Chief Ministers of AP YSR has lost his life in a tragic chopper crash in Kurnool district.
