BJP on October 22 revoked the suspension of Telangana MLA T Raja Singh. He was suspended by the party in August last year after his alleged derogatory comments against Prophet Muhammad.

The Goshamahal MLA was also booked by the police and had spent nearly three months in jail.

In a letter, Om Pathak, Member Secretary of BJP's Central Disciplinary Committee, said that Singh's explanation to the show cause notice was considered.

“The central disciplinary committee of the BJP revoked the suspension of Shri T Raja Singh MLA Gosha Mahal from the BJP after due consideration of his explanation in response to the show cause notice served by the party,” a press release issued by the party stated.

The decision comes weeks ahead of assembly polls in Telangana.
