New Delhi: Former Congress spokesperson Khushbu Sundar joined Bharatiya Janata Party today at party’s headquarters in New Delhi on Monday. She switched to the saffron party in the presence of BJP’s Tamil Nadu unit president Dr L Murugan, party leader CT Ravi and spokesperson Sambit Patra.
She had earlier today submitted her resignation letter to Congress chief Sonia Gandhi.
In her resignation letter to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, she wrote that she felt “pushed and suppressed” by people who had no connect with ground reality.
“Few elements seated at higher level within the party, people who have no connectivity with the ground reality or public recognition are dictating terms and people like me who wanted to work for the party sincerely, are being pushed and suppressed,” Khushbu Sundar wrote.
Khushbu also met BJP National President JP Nadda after joining the party.
Apart from her, Madan Ravichandran and Saravanan Kumaran from Tamil Nadu also joined the party.
