This was on expected lines. Actor-turned-politician Khushbu Sundar has joined the Bharathiya Janata Party (BJP). She joined in the presence of BJP General Secretary CT Ravi, BJP Spokesperson Sambit Patra and other members of the saffron party.
Khushbu Sundar joined the BJP hours after she resigned from the primary membership of Congress, alleging “suppression”. She had joined the Congress in 2014.
After joining the BJP, Khushbu Sundar said she, “Over the time I have realised that the country need someone like PM Narendra Modi to take the country in the right direction.”
“I was lying low in Congress. We opposed the BJP policies some time for no reason and sometimes for the sake of opposing them. I am upset that I was not utilised,” Khushbu Sundar said.
Earlier in the day, Khushbu Sundar resigned from the Congress, saying that she was being “pushed and suppressed” by “few elements” seated at a higher level within the party.
