After BJP leader Shatrughan Sinha’s decision on quitting the current party and joining the Congress has been made, his daughter and actress Sonakshi Sinha has now come in support of her father. She said that her father should have taken the decision of quitting the party a long time ago because he was not getting the respect he deserved.
In spite of Shatrughan Sinha is a two-time MP from Patna Sahib, he was denied BJP ticket from the constituency and instead, Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad has been fielded from Patna Sahib. Therefore, Shatrughan met Congress president Rahul Gandhi and declared his plans of joining the Congress.
In fact, Shatrughan Sinha has made a few remarks on Modi last month and generated speculations on his stay in the party. In March, he called the whole Balakot airstrikes as tamasha and asked to end it. He demanded for more details on the attack and the number of terrorists killed.
Also, a tweet in Urdu by Sinha suggested that he is not willing to work under PM Modi’s led BJP. He even slammed BJP president Amit Shah when the announcement on his Gandhinagar nomination has been made. He argued that senior BJP leader Lal Krishna Advani should have been considered instead of Amit Shah.
