Hyderabad: Suspended BJP MLA T Raja Singh blamed Kannadiga Hindus for defeating BJP. He alleged that the Hindus of Karnataka sold their votes for a few thousand rupees, they chose money instead of religion. Goshamahal MLA from Hyderabad T Raja Singh made a controversial statement on Karnataka elections in a video shared on Twitter.

He alleged that "I have not seen Hindus in Karnataka selling their votes and voted to Congress for a few thousand rupees. But, as per the media reports and other sources, they reportedly sold their votes. I don't know why the people of Karnataka chose the party, which looted the country. Many Hindu organisations workers were murdered; though the BJP banned the PFI, but Congress set those free who were linked with PFI. The Congress looted the country, which led to the destruction of the nation, but Kannadigas voted to Congress "
