Late Bhajan Lal’s son, Kuldeep votes against Congress, leads to Maken’s defeat from Haryana RS, expelled from Congress!
The general secretary Incharge of Congress in Rajasthan and former union minister Ajay Maken was backstabbed by the Congress Adampur MLA Kuldeep Bishnoi becoming victim of cross voting and losing the winning Rajya Sabha seat from Haryan by two votes. While party’s important pillar Ajay Maken lost who was declared a winner in one of the Congress’s tweets, later on withdrawn, suffered a huge setback the party expelled the son of former Haryana CM late Bhajan Lal from the primary membership of the party. Some of the strong supporters had posted their photos on Facebook even yesterday congratulating their leader Ajay Maken, presenting bouquets and even senior Congress leaders were highly confident of his sure sort victory.
After being expelled from Congress Adampur MLA and special invitee of Congress Working Committee, the highest decision making body of Congress, Kuldeep Bishnoi tweeted : Had the Congress acted this swiftly and strongly in 2016 and on every other critical opportunity they’ve missed they wouldn’t have been in such dire straits accusing the high command that Congress also has rules for some leaders and exceptions others. Rules are applied selectively and indiscipline has been selectively ignored in the past. He further said in my case I listened to my soul and acted on morals tweeted Bishnoi. While expelling Bishnoi for violating party descipline and conducting breach of trust back stabbing Congress leading to its senior leaders defeat by cross voting in favour of BJP and JJP supported candidate Kartikeyan Sharma, a media baron Congress general secretary K. C. Venugopal in a press statement said : the Hon’ble Congress president has expelled Shri Kuldeep Bishnoi from all the present party positions including the post of special invitee of the Congress working committee with immediate effect.
Meanwhile the chief minister of Haryana Manohar Lal Khattar has congratulated both the winner Rajya Sabha MPs from Haryana Krishan Lal Panwar and Kartikeya Sharma saying that success of the candidates is a victory of democracy. My best wishes to them for their new responsibilities in the development of our great nation tweeted Khattar.
Kindly recall that Kuldeep Bishnoi son of the former Haryana CM late Bhajan Lal had voted against the Congress Rajya Sabha candidate Ajay Maken defeated by one vote due to cross his cross voting and another vote going waste being invalid. Maken needed 31 votes but he got 29 votes this losing this election with Kartikeyan Sharma winning who was an independent candidate supported by BJP and JJP. Kuldeep Bishnoi was considered to be very close to Rahul Gandhi but his betrayal has resulted in the defeat of the strongest Congress pillar and general secretary Ajay Maken finally expelled from all party positions by party’s interim president Sonia Gandhi for indiscipline and breach of trust.
