Roja joins Congress?

Roja joins Congress? Veteran South Indian actress and Telugu Desam Party Mahila president Roja visited Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy at his camp office in Hyderabad on Sunday and presented him with a bouquet. This is being rumoured to be a symbol of switching her loyalties to the Congress.

Former TTD Chairman B. Karunakara Reddy accompanied Roja during the 20-minute meeting which came less than a fortnight after she stoutly denied the Chief Minister’s remark that she had expressed willingness to join the Congress.

The actress said that she was yet to take a decision on joining the Congress, but indicated it was only a matter of time when she said, "I have no objection to work under a leader (Dr. Rajasekhara Reddy) who cares about his followers and will not leave them when they are in distress."

The actress claimed that she had met the Chief Minister to compliment him for bringing the NTPC-BHEL joint venture to Chittoor district and also dismissed reports that she had decided to quit the TDP as she was not given a prominent post. Roja had been keeping herself away from the TDP party affairs for some time now and her brothers were said to have convinced her to join the Congress.
