RCP Singh’s Anticipated Move to Bharatiya Janata Party
Former Union Minister and ex-Janata Dal (United) president, RCP Singh, is expected to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today in Delhi. This news comes following Singh’s resignation from the JDU amid allegations of corruption last year.
Singh Resigned from JDU Amid Graft Charges
RCP Singh tendered his resignation from the JDU on August 6, 2023, amid ongoing graft charges. In his statement, he referred to the JDU as a ‘sinking ship’, expressing his lack of faith in the party’s future.
Potential Boost for BJP
Singh’s move to the BJP is viewed by many as a potential boost for the party. The former Union Minister’s experience and influence could prove to be beneficial for the BJP, adding to their cadre of seasoned leaders.
Impact on JDU and Bihar Politics
Singh’s departure from the JDU and his expected induction into the BJP could have a significant impact on Bihar politics, where JDU has traditionally been a major player. His departure may lead to further instability within the JDU and potentially alter the political landscape in Bihar.
Awaiting Official Confirmation
While it’s widely expected that RCP Singh will be joining the BJP today, an official announcement from the party is awaited. This move, if confirmed, will signify another major political shift in India’s dynamic political landscape.
