"The rumours that are being spread and allegations being levelled that we will go with the BJP..under any circumstances the TRS party would never go with (Prime Minister) Narendra Modi or the BJP, I promise," Rao said.
The son of TRS president and Telangana's caretaker chief minister K Chandrashekhar Rao, he was speaking at a function at the party headquarters here. Congress leader Abid Rasool Khan and other workers joined the TRS at the function.
