The BJP which got only 1,600 votes in the previous elections has now won the election. BJP’s influence was not seen in Nagarujanasagar by-election. Defeat was not permanent and I will not bow down by it. We will rebuild the party. Freedom is there for seniors in our party and we will work along with them by coordinating,” said Mr Revanth.
