Another Congress Leader To Join BJP?

Following the exit of Jyotiraditya Scindia from the Congress party reports emerged that another leader Shashi Tharoor might also leave the Congress party and join the Saffron party.

Talking about the speculations, Tharoor said that he is not amused by the speculations that he might be the next leader to leave the party after Madhya Pradesh leader Jyotiraditya Scindia tendered his resignation on Tuesday.

“Not amused by the silly speculation about my joining ⁦@BJP4India⁩. I entered politics not as a careerist but to advance principles I have articulated for nearly four decades. Check my paper trail! My record speaks for itself. I’ve never been an opportunist&won’t start now,” his Tweet read.

Earlier senior Haryana Congress leader Kuldeep Bishnoi took to Twitter to share his thoughts on Scindia leaving the party.

“Scindia's departure is a big blow to the Congress. He was a central pillar in the party and the leadership should've done more to convince him to stay," his Tweet read.
