BJP STALWARTS MARGINALISED AFTER LOK SABHA, ASSEMBLY POLLS

After the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in Haryana, the principal opposition Congress party continues to witness the debacle while several heavyweights of the saffron Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) are marginalized in the party.

After the defeat in the elections in Haryana, Congress has not been able to come up with the appointment of the leader of the opposition in the state till now due to a prevailing rift among the party leaders.

Along with this, the leaders of the opposition camp within the party, including Kumar Selja, Birender Singh, and Randeep Surjewala, are constantly demanding, directly or indirectly, the removal of the state president and Hooda's close aide Chaudhary Udaybhan from the post.

In continuation of the aforesaid, it is worth noting that several former ministers and heavyweights of the Haryana BJP who could not survive the assembly battle are currently nowhere to be seen in the politics of the state and have not been given any post or responsibility in the state government, which is no less than a setback for them.

Female leader Rekha Sharma, who was declared the party candidate for the Rajya Sabha seat lying vacant after the resignation of Krishan Lal Pawar, was elected unopposed as MP.

After losing the assembly elections, many state BJP leaders were lobbying for the Rajya Sabha seat but denied it.

Kuldeep Bishnoi, Captain Abhimanyu, and OP Dhankar of the BJP left no stone unturned to become Rajya Sabha MP.
