Haryana Diary: Sharma’s advice to CM
Tourism and Cooperative Minister Dr Arvind Sharma has advised Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini to remain cautious from those BJP leaders or workers who either quit the party during the Assembly elections or worked against the party’s interest clandestinely at that time. “We have no objection if they want to join the party again, but they would have to raise slogans in favour of the CM selflessly for atleast one year. Then, we will think that such leaders should be taken into the party fold or not,” said Sharma at a function in Gohana.

During an event, while expressing gratitude to the party workers, Sudha said “During the elections, Congress leaders created an atmosphere and threatened people with action if they voted for the BJP, but the party has formed its government for the third time in Haryana. I am grateful to party workers and supporters who fought the election bravely and didn’t get afraid. But those who left the party during the elections will not be allowed to rejoin the BJP at any cost.”
