Baldev Sharma and Lal Chand, the two MLAs in a joint media address on Thursday while putting their respective position clear over the cross voting said that a conspiracy is being hatched within the party allegedly in connivance with the High Command to dissociate state cadre on 4-7 number as those identified as ‘culprits’ by the high command belong to a particular group.
Defiant on carrying the battle till the end, two of the seven suspended BJP MLA’s from one the faction of the party, led a scathing attack on ex-president Ashok Khajuria.
With both the factions refusing to blink, it has become an open war with both sides gunning for each other’s heads. Though factionalism was prevalent in the party for quite some, but after the cross voting saga it has been turned into an open battle.
Now it appears that cross voting issue has become a side show with focus now has been completely shifted on gaining control in the party.
Both addressed their answer to O P Kohli, president central disciplinary committee. “ It was a deliberate attempt by the chief whip who enjoys a selected patronage of the high command to devise a strategy to sideline the other group and indict them into cross voting knowingly that the numbers available with the party were not sufficient for election of MLC of its own party,” said Baldev Sharma, the MLA from Reasi.
He reiterated his earlier accusation towards the chief whip Ashok Khajuria saying that despite his constant insistence to him, the latter did not issued a whip for abstaining from voting that encouraged the cross voting by seven adding that the ‘shameful act’ was not based on ‘vote for cash’ but was a bigger game-plan to disintegrate the party.
Baldev also pointed out the instance of Khajuria disclosing his ballot paper charging him with blatantly invalidating his vote against the whip issued by him.
He also hinted at the proximity of Ashok Khajuria with the party which is beneficiary of cross voting.
MLA Bani Lal Chand who also shared the dais with Baldev while charging Khajuria recalled the incident of Party High Command’s recent meet chaired by Raj Nath Singh in Jammu which was deliberately skipped by Khajuria to meet an important bureaucrat that amply pointed towards Khajuria’s doubtful integrity.
Both the MLAs also held the ‘clean chit MLAs’ responsible for playing hide and seek and not responding to call to undergo narco and brain mapping test.
“We are open to all tests and enquiries and also challenge the clean chit MLAs to come forward for the same to get the truth out,” said the both announcing that the ‘real BJP’ consists of them only as others are faking their positions in the party.
“There has been a well thought out conspiracy to sideline the tallest leader Prof. Chaman lal Gupta, who served the party for last 62 years.
