Congress MLA Rahul Lodhi resigns, joins BJP in presence of CM Chouhan

Former Congress MLA Rahul Lodhi joined Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the presence of Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan in Bhopal. “I have worked with Congress for around 14 months but I couldn't work for the development. All the public welfare schemes have been put to a halt in Damoh. Today I have joined BJP willingly,” said Lodhi. He had tendered his resignation to Protem Speaker Rameshwar Sharma earlier today.
