It's influx time for the BJP in Andhra Pradesh as several Congress leaders are queuing up to join the saffron party.

The latest name doing rounds is that of Chirala MLA Amanchi Krishna Mohan.

In 2014 elections, he won from Chirala as an independent candidate in a triangular contest. Later, he met the Chief Minister N.Chandrababu Naidu to join TDP. But, the local TDP in charge, an MP and some ministers objected to his entry. Since then, he dropped the idea of joining the TDP and was busy with his businesses.

Amanchi has SC, ST atrocities case booked against him and could be arrested any time soon. Recently, his brother's sand quarry was raided. Sources say that Amanchi wants respite from these cases and his attempts to join the BJP are being seen in this backdrop.
