Former Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament (MP) Brijendra Singh has made a significant political move by joining the Indian National Congress. Singh cited various political and ideological differences as the key reasons behind his decision to leave the BJP.
During his announcement, Singh highlighted his disagreements with the BJP on critical issues such as farmers’ concerns, the stance on Agniveers, and support for wrestlers during protests.
Brijendra Singh pointed out the alliance between the BJP and Dushyant Chautala’s Jannayak Janta Party (JJP) in Haryana as a pivotal factor influencing his departure from the ruling party.

Commenting on Singh’s shift to Congress, Dushyant Chautala, the leader of JJP, respectfully acknowledged Singh’s decision, mentioning the importance of making one’s own choices.
The upcoming Lok Sabha elections have spurred discussions about seat-sharing arrangements between the Congress and JJP, anticipating a potentially impactful alliance.

His public stand in support of wrestlers against alleged misconduct accusations involving a fellow BJP MP was noted as a defining moment in Singh’s political journey.
The development adds an intriguing dynamic to the political landscape in Haryana, setting the stage for a compelling electoral cycle in the region.
