Ahead of state polls, the working president of the Congress in Himachal Pradesh, Harsh Mahajan, joined the BJP on Wednesday, saying the opposition party had become “vision-less, directionless, and leaderless.”
Mahajan, a former state minister and aide to the late chief minister Virbhadra Singh, criticised the state’s Congress leadership, claiming that “it is very much dominated by maa-beta (mother-son) like in Delhi.”
“Nothing has been left in the Congress after the death of the former chief minister,” Mahajan said.
In the presence of BJP leader JP Nadda and Union minister Piyush Goyal, he joined the party.
Mahajan praised the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. According to him, the leadership of Modi has provided a strong government.
Goyal said the BJP will script history in the hill state by retaining power following the elections to be held later this year.
For more than four decades, Mahajan had been workings as a Congress leader.
