Congress National Spokesperson Ragini Nayak on Sunday said that Sachin Birla, the former MLA of the party who took the BJP's membership and formally joined the ruling party in Madhya Pradesh ahead of the polls would be 'unhappy' after the results of the assembly elections.
Ragini Nayak, while speaking to ANI said that there is no reason for the Congress to be upset about Sachin leaving the party just before the crucial polls. "He had almost declared that he would be joining BJP in the year 2021 itself. He pretended to be on Congress' side only to save his MLA membership. If he wants to join with "Nafrat Ki Farman", it's well and good...There is nothing to feel sad about...He would be unhappy once the election results are out," Ragini Nayak said. Notably, Sachin Birla switched to the BJP in October 2021 without resigning from his legislative membership, and the Congress did not expel him. In the 2018 assembly elections, Birla had won the Barwaha seat. Sachin Birla, the first-time MLA took the BJP's membership during a function at the party's state office here in the presence of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and MP party unit chief VD Sharma. Madhya Pradesh is one of the five states going to polls at the end of this year. The terms of the legislative assemblies in Telangana, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, and Madhya Pradesh are set to conclude on various dates in January of the coming year, while the term of the Mizoram Legislative Assembly will end on December 17 this year.
