Five-time MP from Jharkhand Ram Tahal Choudhary joins Congress
State party in-charge Ghulam Ahmad Mir called him a big name in Jharkhand who has taken part in big movements and raised the voice of the public.
A day after Patidar leader from north Gujarat Narendra Patel alleged that the BJP tried to buy him, Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on Monday took on the ruling party, saying Gujarat is priceless and can never be bought.
“Gujarat is priceless. It has never been bought. It can never be bought. It will never be bought,” Gandhi said in a tweet.
Narendra Patel had alleged that Patidar leader Varun Patel, who joined the BJP on Saturday evening, took him to meet Gujarat BJP President Jitubhai Vaghani and other leaders on Sunday, who offered him Rs 1 crore to join the BJP.
