After Congress, the BSP has suffered a setback in Noida. Ravi Kant Mishra, who contested on the BSP ticket in the last assembly elections, joined the BJP in Lucknow on Wednesday. He also raised slogans of Jai Shri Ram instead of Jai Bheem.
Earlier, Dr. VS Chauhan, who contested the 2012 assembly elections on Congress ticket, joined BJP. Both leaders have a good hold in urban voters as well as their caste. For this reason, the BJP believes that the coming of these two leaders will benefit the BJP in the coming Lok Sabha elections
Ravikant Mishra, who left the BSP, said that the BSP has become a special category party. There is no place for anyone other than the SC’s in the party. I was feeling suffocated in BSP, because of this I have decided to join BJP.
