I belong to ‘Bharatiya Janata’ before the party, says Shatrughan Sinha

TIL Desk/National/Patna/Disgruntled BJP MP Shatrughan Sinha has asserted that he belonged to the “Bharatiya Janata” (Indian public) before he owed allegiance to any party. Addressing a function in his Lok Sabha constituency of Patna Sahib, the actor-turned-politician lamented that the party (BJP) had become a “one man show, two man army” a jibe aimed at Narendra Modi and Amit Shah.

Former Union minister Yashwant Sinha, who announced severing of his ties with the BJP earlier this year, speaking at the function said anybody speaking the truth nowadays was being dubbed an “anti-national” and asserted that “if that is the case, please count myself and Shatrughan Sinha as topmost among anti-nationals.”

“Try asking anybody to name three ministers in the current regime. He will take the name of Prime Minister Narendra Modi first, followed by Amit Shah who is not a minister. Thereafter he will start fumbling,” the former Union minister said at the function organized on the occasion of birth anniversary of former Premier Lal Bahadur Shastri.
