BJP HALTS OPPOSITION INDUCTION AFTER BY-ELECTION LOSS

Following its defeat in the Ghosi assembly by-election, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has put a temporary halt to its strategy of inducting leaders from opposing parties. The central committee has tightened the rules of inducting new members, which now requires a thorough screening.

Previously, the BJP had initiated a campaign to strengthen its position by breaking leaders away from opposition parties each month. This started in July and August, with former ministers like Dara Singh Chauhan and many others joining the party. To manage this, a joining committee was established under the leadership of Deputy President Brij Bahadur.
