Actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha today officially joined the Congress, on the Sansthapna Diwas or Foundation Day of his outgoing party, the BJP. As he bid a farewell to the BJP, with which he has shared an acrimonious relationship for years, the lawmaker took potshots at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and party chief Amit Shah. “In the one-man show, two-man army, everything happens from Prime Minister’s Office… the ministers can’t work freely anyway,” he said. “We have seen how democracy turned into autocracy” he added.Taking a jibe at the BJP over the snub to veteran leader LK Advani, Mr Sinha said, “Advani ji was sent to Mardarshak Mandal which hasn’t held even a single meeting so far. They did the same to Jaswant Singh, Yashwant Sinha… I was even told that I have been a critic and that I will not be given a cabinet post… but my image has been clean.” Find this and more in this episode of Weekly Political Roundup
