Shankersinh Vaghela's son joins BJP, yet another jolt for Congress

Ahmedabad, Jul 14 (IANS): Less than 48 hours after BJP chief Amit Shah landed in Gujarat, his party received yet another shot in the arm with Mahendrasinh Vaghela, former Congress legislator and son of political heavyweight Shankersinh Vaghela, joining the Bharatiya Janata Party on Saturday.

Vaghela won from Bayad Assembly constituency in North Gujarat in 2012 and refrained for contesting again in the December 2017 elections.

In the past fortnight, Congress veteran and legislator Kunwarji Bavaliya and Rajkot strongman and former MLA Indraneel Rajyaguru resigned from the party.

Bavaliya not only joined the BJP but was immediately made a cabinet minister. And now it is Vaghela, who has followed suit.

Amit Shah, who has been credited for engineering these defections, landed in Ahmedabad on Thursday evening and performed the sacred Manglaa Arti to open the traditional Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath in early hours of Saturday.

    When Congress got jolt from Shankersinh Vaghela's son joining BJP who is knowns to RSS man in Congress, In yet another embarrassment to the BJP, one of its senior office-bearers in Gujarat has had to resign after a 21-year-old girl from Surat filed a police complaint alleging rape and blackmail by him.

    Gujarat BJP vice president Jayanti Bhanushali, Gujarat BJP vice-president and former legislator from Kutch, resigned from his post on Friday.

    The victim said that she had got in touch with Bhanusali requesting his help for admission in a fashion designing college. The disgraced BJP leader, she alleged, called her to Gandhinagar and raped her in a moving car. Bhanusali also threatened her using a sharp weapon if she decided to tell anyone about her rape, she alleged.

    According to a report by IANS, the victim said that Bhanusali’s men also filmed the entire act and used the video later to blackmail her for more ‘sexual favours.’ Bhanushali’s driver and others were also involved in the crime.

    When our mass media has self censored themselves for BJP's crimes against women of India the party looks holy in the eyes of voters by chanting 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' and raping her daughter.

    RSS Guruji Savarkar’s call for rape as a political weapon still finds open resonance among communal fanatics. This is the same Savarkar whose portrait was placed in parliament under the stewardship of the BJP and whom Modi referred to as ‘a true patriot.’
    The BJP which came to power in Gujarat after post Godhra communal violence were criminals like Babu Bajrangi who slit the Pregnant women and toss the fetus and killed the mother later and burned compared himself to be Maharana Pratap is absolved from cases.
    Today the same lust continue to threaten the women of Gujarat regardless of caste and creed.

    What else can one expect from the Bharat Tukde Tukde Gang headed by Amit Shah and Modi, but the buying of politicians to suit heir devious greed for power at the cost of the nation? These shameless thugs do not care about the common man. There only interest is power and safeguarding powerbrokers who fund their devious deeds i.e Adani, Ambani, and the rest of the lootera scumbags, etc ('excreta')!

    Only blind bhakts idiots just cannot see how corrupt the BJP under PM Modi and BJP party president Shah and believe the Modi Government is not corrupt! The 'India Corruption Study' conducted by the Centre For Media Studies covered more than 2,000 households from over 200 rural and urban clusters of 13 states -- Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Delhi, Gujarat, Karantaka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh and Bengal.

Build up a new image with faithful Members.Elevate the people who are honest and worked for the party for many a Years.But please do not make any mistake by inviting them once again to the party fold.This will lead into major disturbance to the Party.

    Chhadis write so much nonsense they can't remember their own comments which they made yesterday. So do you expect anyone to believe that any chhadi can remember what comment I made in 2014 ? Quit the lies. By the way we know and remember and keep records of what we write. People who are not educated in Nagpur are smarter.
