New Delhi, July 10: MLA from Haryana Kuldeep Bishnoi met Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP President JP Nadda on Sunday, setting out speculations that he may join the party.
Bishnoi was accused of cross-voting in the recently held Rajya Sabha polls in Haryana which resulted in the defeat of Congress nominee Ajay Maken, and was expelled from the Congress.
After meeting the BJP leaders, Bishnoi tweeted heaping praise on both the leaders. He called Shah a true leader, and lauded Nadda for taking BJP to unprecedented heights.
“Meeting Amit Shah ji was an honour and a pleasure. A true political leader, talking to him I could feel his aura and charisma. His perspective for India is amazing,” Bishnoi said in a tweet.
On his meeting with Nadda, in a tweet in Hindi, he said, “I am honoured to meet JP Nadda ji. His simple and polite behaviour makes him extraordinary. In his capable leadership, BJP has achieved unprecedented heights. I pray for his long life and good health”.
He also posted pictures with both leaders.
Bishnoi is the younger son of former Haryana CM Bhajan Lal.
In the recently held Rajya Sabha election in Haryana, Congress candidate Ajay Maken lost even as his party had the required numbers due to cross voting by Bishnoi and another MLA’s vote being invalid.
Earlier today, Bishnoi, in a cryptic tweet said, “don’t be afraid of making a second attempt, this time the beginning will not be from zero but from experience”.
