I will join Congress, give positive news during Navaratri: Shatrughan Sinha
Amidst the speculation over sidelined BJP leader Shatrughan Sinha joining the Congress party ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, the leader has cleared the air stating that ‘he will join the Congress, although a bit later.’
According to media reports, Sinha is all set to contest from the Patna Saheb constituency which was handed over to Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad by the BJP. Sinha has been sidelined by the BJP high command, since he started speaking against PM Narendra Modi and the Central leadership and even had started attending the Opposition rallies (West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee’s rally).
