It is not unusual for MPs to change parties ahead of the general elections. The BRS has so far announced 11 candidates in the state with 17 Lok Sabha seats.

Yesterday, BRS MP from Warangal, Pasunoori Dayakar, also left the party to join the Congress. Many BRS MPs have moved to other parties in recent weeks.

Earlier, BRS MPs from Zaheerabad and Nagarkurnool, B B Patil and P Ramulu, respectively, joined the BJP.
