BJP Set To Form Government In Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan And Madhya Pradesh
BJP national president JP Nadda led the delegation of the MPs to meet the Speaker to submit their resignation. From Madhya Pradesh, the MPs who submitted their resignation included Narendra Tomar, Prahlad Patel, Riti Pathak, Rakesh Singh and Uday Pratap Singh.
Among those who met the Speaker were Rajyavardhan Rathore, Kirodi Lal Meena and Diya Kumari from Rajasthan, while Arun Sao and Gomti Sai were the MPs from Chhattisgarh. Baba Balaknath and Renuka Singh are yet to submit their resignation.
The BJP is set to form the government in Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh after the party crossed the majority mark in all three states. The Congress, however, emerged as the victor in Telangana after dealing a lethal blow to the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS).
