Alleging money-force in ticket distribution, he said that he will stand in the assembly elections according to the aspirations of the people and will answer it.

Angry over the ticket being cut, former chief Bisht lashed out at the sitting MLA. He said that the MLA has crossed all limits to benefit his loved ones and relatives.

Former state secretary of BJYM left BJP
Suraj Ghildiyal, former state secretary of BJYM, has resigned from the membership of BJP in protest against the ticket to Dr. Dhan Singh Rawat and the expulsion of Dr. Harak Singh Rawat from the party. He has sent his resignation letter to the party’s district president and state president. Ghildiyal said that the way BJP has humiliated Dr. Rawat and expelled him from the cabinet and party, he is hurt. He also accused the local MLA Dr. Dhan Singh Rawat of neglecting the youth and the area.
State Minister Balbir Ghunyal expressed displeasure over not getting ticket
BJP’s state organization minister Balveer Ghunyal expressed displeasure over not getting ticket from Tharali assembly seat, calling it neglect of workers. Said that this has lowered the morale of the workers associated with the party for a long time.
Tharali assembly seat includes Pindar Tharali, Dewal, Narayanbagad and Ghat blocks. Balveer Ghunyal has been contending for the ticket since 2007. On Thursday, the BJP announced 59 candidates, including Bhupalram Tamta’s name from Tharali seat.
On the party’s nomination of Bhupalram Tamta as its candidate, the party’s state minister Balveer Ghunyal said that in the year 2017 also his ticket was cut at the last moment. This time too his ticket was canceled at the last minute. He said that Bhupal Ram Tamta joined BJP from Congress in 2018. If the party does this then how will the workers join the BJP. Giving ticket to a person from Congress is neglect of the workers. At the same time, when he wanted to talk to sitting MLA Munni Devi Shah after not getting the ticket, he did not get his call.
