New Delhi: Former Union Minister RPN Singh joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), soon after quitting Congress on Tuesday.
In a major setback to Congress just ahead of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly election, the Jharkhand in-charge and ex-MP from Kushinagar constituency took to Twitter to inform of his joining. “This is a new beginning for me and I look forward to my contribution to nation-building under the visionary leadership and guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP President JP Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah,” he said after resigning from the Congress party.
This is a new beginning for me and I look forward to my contribution to nation building under the visionary leadership & guidance of the Honourable Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi, BJP President Shri @JPNadda ji & Honourable Home Minister @AmitShah ji.

Taking to Twitter, Singh posted his resignation letter addressed to Sonia Gandhi, “Today, at a time, we are celebrating the formation of our great Republic, I begin a new chapter in my political journey. Jai Hind.”

Meanwhile, as the pictures and videos of RPN Singh joining BJP surfaced online, here’s what Netizens have to say in the matter:
“Star campaigner” till yesterday Cong OBC heavy weight RPN Singh quits. Now, Cong calls him a coward. They said that about Captain, Prasada, Scindia and Sarma. But arent the real cowards those within the party who quietly accept the Parivaar’s writ and whims?

Priyanka Gandhi revived Congress in UP so much that even RPN Singh left Congress for joining BJP.
