Kamboj, upset with BJP, joins Congress
Karndev Kamboj was a contender for a ticket from Radaur or Indri seat but the party ignored him. After this, he accused the BJP of ignoring old and loyal leaders. Kamboj says that the BJP gave tickets to those who had recently joined the party or defected, while the leaders who had been working for the party for years were not given a chance. Kamboj joined the Congress on Friday in the presence of former Chief Minister Bhupendra Singh Hooda and State Congress President Udaybhan.
