New Delhi: Rajasthan Congress leaders Jyoti Mirdha and Sawai Singh Choudhary joined the BJP on Monday ahead of the state assembly elections due to be held later this year.
Mirdha, a former MP from Nagaur in Rajasthan, and Choudhary joined the BJP in the presence of senior party leaders.
“With the joining of Jyoti Mirdha and Sawai Singh Choudhary, the BJP family has been strengthened further,” BJP general secretary and Rajasthan in-charge Arun Singh told reporters, welcoming the two leaders into the party fold.
Mirdha said the lack of opportunities in the Congress party prompted her decision to leave the party. Mirdha added that the situation in Rajasthan as far as women safety is concerned is not good.
“Our own workers are being ignored. Many people were feeling so suffocated that they left the Congress family and joined the BJP,” she said.
