RANCHI: Rajya Sabha MP and Jharkhand BJP president Deepak Prakash on Saturday called former Union minister and ex-BJP stalwart Yashwant Sinha a “spent force” and one “with no political relevance”.
Prakash’s jibe came after Yashwant, who earlier held the Union external affairs and finance portfolios during the erstwhile BJP regime, joined the Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress (TMC) on Saturday noon in Kolkata in the presence of senior leaders of TMC Derek O Brien, Sudip Bandopadhyay and Subrata Mukherjee. After his induction, Yashwant said, “I was forced to come out of the self-imposed political exile after shunning BJP in 2018 because of the fast degrading political situation in the country.”
Ranchi: Chief minister Hemant Soren and four former CMs will canvass for BJP and Trinamool Congress in the poll-bound West Bengal in the coming weeks.
Union tribal affairs minister and ex-CM Arjun Munda on Friday began his three-day electioneering trip in West Bengal, campaigning for Gouri Singh Sardar, BJP’s candidate in the Manbazar (ST) assembly constituency under Purulia district. He is expected to tour a few more ST assembly seats in the region that will go to the hustings on March 27.
While Munda is already on the campaign trail, former CM Raghubar Das is expected to begin canvassing on Monday. Das, the only CM in Jharkhand to complete five years in office, was appointed BJP’s national vice-president last year. It has not been decided where Das will campaign in the first phase.
