He and others including district Congress farmers wing president Chand Chouriya, district Congress vice president Satish Mishra and members of the party’s health and medical cell from Gwalior-Chambal region joined the saffron party at its headquarters, a BJP spokesperson said.
Inspired by the BJP’s policies and the development under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, a large number of public representatives and office-bearers (of Congress) from Chhindwara joined the party, state BJP chief V D Sharma said on this occasion.
Chhindwara is now a “bastion” of beneficiaries of the Modi government’s pro-poor schemes, he added. The Congress on Tuesday fielded Nakul Nath, son of former chief minister Kamal Nath, from Chhindwara.
Kamal Nath was elected as MP from Chhindwara nine times, while his wife Alka Nath represented it once. Nakul Nath won from the seat last time.
