Uttar Pradesh: MP Ritesh Pandey joins BJP, resigned from BSP today itself

Ritesh Pandey, MP from Ambedkar Nagar, Uttar Pradesh, has joined the Bharatiya Janata Party. Let us tell you that he was earlier an MP from Bahujan Samaj Party. He had resigned from BSP on Sunday morning itself. After resigning, Ritesh Pandey had accused BSP that neither he was being called to party meetings nor any communication was being held at the leadership level. He had said that he has started feeling that the party no longer needs him and because of this he has no other option but to resign.
On Sunday afternoon, Ritesh Pandey took membership of the party in front of everyone at the BJP headquarters in Delhi. Many senior BJP leaders were present there on this occasion. It is being told that Ritesh Pandey was in contact with senior BJP leaders for a long time.
Party supremo Mayawati had targeted Ritesh Pandey without naming him over his resignation from BSP. He had expressed his views by making three posts one after the other on the social media site Due to which the policy and working style of this party is different from the capitalist parties of the country, keeping this in mind the party also fields its candidates in the elections.”

She further wrote, “Now the BSP MPs have to live up to this test and also check themselves whether they took proper care of the people of their area? Did they give full time to their area? Also, did they work for the party and the movement? Have you properly followed the guidelines given from time to time in your interest?

Mayawati wrote in the last post, “In such a situation, is it possible to give tickets to most of the Lok Sabha MPs, especially when they are seen wandering here and there in their own interests and are in negative news. Despite the media knowing all this. It is unfair to publicize this as a weakness of the party. BSP’s party interest is paramount.”
3. ऐसे में अधिकतर लोकसभा सांसदों का टिकट दिया जाना क्या संभव, खासकर तब जब वे स्वंय अपने स्वार्थ में इधर-उधर भटकते नजर आ रहे हैं व निगेटिव चर्चा में हैं। मीडिया द्वारा यह सब कुछ जानने के बावजूद इसे पार्टी की कमजोरी के रूप में प्रचारित करना अनुचित। बीएसपी का पार्टी हित सर्वोपरि।
