The senior leader of the party resigned on Wednesday after alleging that party president and Union Minister Jayant Choudhury has deviated from the ideologies of his father Ajit Singh and grand father Bharat Ratna Chaudhary Charan Singh.
In a sharp reaction to RJD leader Misa Bharti's remarks, the BJP leaders said with her statement, Misa Bharti is making her father's 'pratigya' laughable.
Talking to reporters after joining the new party, he said that whoever RLD goes with, will win in this general election.
During his interaction with the opinion leaders, the chief minister made an appeal for votes in favour of Chandan Chauhan, the joint candidate of RLD and BJP for the Bijnor, Om Kumar for the Nagina, and Kunwar Singh Tanwar for the Amroha Lok Sabha seat.
In the first phase, 8 Lok Sabha seats of Western UP will go to polls where nominations would be accepted from March 20. Polling in the first phase is scheduled on April 19.
“We are leaving 7 seats vacant for SP, BSP and RLD. These include Mainpuri, Kannauj, Firozabad and whatever seats Mayawati ji and RLD's Jayant ji and Ajit Singh contest from. We will also give two seats to Apna Dal - Gonda and Pilibhit, said Babbar while briefing the media.
It was speculated that the RLD would be a part of the alliance again but the announcement has come as a shocker to many.
Ajit Singh was in Muzaffarnagar for his Jansamvad Yatra when he targeted the BJP on the issue of Syana violence.
State Chief Minister claims over 1 lakh km of roads are free of potholes.
