“I am hurt by the way the Congress party treated me. I’ll resign from my MLA post and join BJP,” said Roshan Baig who was lately been critical of party leadership.
“The state leadership has failed, there is no accountability. I am not going to either Mumbai or Goa, I am in Bengaluru. I am going to resign from MLA post. They (BJP) are in touch with me”, he told news agency ANI.
Baig was recently suspended from the party due to “anti-party activities”. His suspension came in the backdrop of his alleged role in the I Monetary Advisory (IMA) scam and alleged linking to prime accused Mansoor Khan that has left thousands of investors in dire straits.
