Gurugram news : Dushyant Chautala has suffered a major setback before the Haryana assembly elections. Three rebel MLAs of the party have joined the BJP. During a rally in Jind, MLAs Anoop Dhanak, Ram Kumar Gautam and Jogi Ram Sihag joined the BJP on Sunday. This will strengthen the ruling party before the assembly by-elections to be held on October 5 in Haryana.
Ambala Mayor Shakti Rani Sharma, Chief Minister Naib Singh Saini, party state president Mohan Lal Badoli and party’s state affairs co-in-charge Biplab Kumar Deb welcomed them into the BJP at a rally in Jind. Shakti Rani Sharma is the wife of former Union Minister Vinod Sharma.
His son and independent Rajya Sabha member Kartikeya Sharma was also present at the Jind event. Dhanak, Gautam and Sihag were JJP MLAs but they left the party a few days ago. However, another JJP MLA Ram Niwas Surjekhera was not seen during this time, against whom Jind police had recently registered a rape case.
He did not come to the rally, while there was a strong buzz that he would join BJP. Sources say that the party is currently avoiding taking him because a rape case has been registered against him.
All the three MLAs who joined BJP want tickets. These people had also supported BJP in the Rajya Sabha elections. Apart from this, they were constantly giving statements targeting Dushyant Chautala. In such a situation, it was believed for many months that these people would leave Dushyant Chautala.
Let us tell you that Dushyant Chautala was a part of the government almost the entire time during the second term of the BJP government. But just before the Lok Sabha elections, he parted ways. He was assuming that this would benefit him in the Lok Sabha elections, but the account was not even opened.
Apart from this, MLAs are also continuously leaving the party. Anoop Dhanak is expecting a ticket from BJP for Uklana seat. Apart from this, Ramkumar Gautam is staking claim from a seat in Jind.
