Madhya Pradesh: Former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh and eight-time MLA from Bagli Assembly constituency, Deepak Joshi, MP and son of Kailash Joshi, known as a saint of politics, has joined Congress today. He reached the residence of Madhya Pradesh Congress President Kamal Nath and joined the Congress along with his comrades. During this Deepak Joshi had father Kailash Joshi’s photo in his hand. Deepak Joshi joined the Congress in a simple ceremony. This defection of Deepak Joshi is being considered as a big victory of the Congress. This is being seen as a setback for the BJP. The Congress has made a dent in the old family of BJP, whose chief Kailash Joshi was holding the reins of BJP till his death. Deepak had announced on Friday that he would leave the BJP and join the Congress.
Took Congress membership in a simple ceremony: Deepak Joshi, who was a minister in Madhya Pradesh government, along with his colleagues reached the house of Madhya Pradesh Congress President and former Chief Minister Kamal Nath. He joined the Congress in a simple ceremony. Deepak Joshi reached Kamal Nath residence without a convoy of vehicles and without any show of strength. Let us tell you that before joining the Congress, Deepak Joshi held a press conference on Friday. In which the pain of leaving BJP and joining Congress was clearly visible on his face. Tears welled up in his eyes while answering the reporters. Let us tell you that ever since Manoj Joshi, a supporter of Jyotiraditya Scindia, has joined BJP, since then the questions and answers of Deepak Joshi in the party have reduced a lot. He had also expressed this pain many times.
Congress had defeated Deepak Joshi in the year 2018: Deepak Joshi lost to Manoj Chowdhary of INC in the 2018 assembly elections. Later Manoj Chowdhary joined BJP along with Jyotiraditya Scindia. BJP gave him a ticket in the by-election and he won. Deepak Joshi’s inquiries have reduced after Manoj Chowdhary joined BJP, due to which he is leaving his father’s legacy party.
These allegations have been made on BJP: Former minister Deepak Joshi said that he is also leaving his father’s traditional house. Now he will stay at his brother-in-law’s house in Bhopal. He said that his father was an MP from Bhopal, but not a single thing was in his name. Fought a long battle in Dewas, did not mention his name there also, why so? It is not a matter of ideology, who will believe, now I will be with him. I am impressed by Kamal Nath. He gave the land for his father’s memorial in just three minutes. BJP reduced the memorial to ruins in 30 months.
