Brij Bhushan Singh Joins UP BJP State Executive Committee Ahead of 2027 Polls
Former BJP MP and ex-Wrestling Federation of India president Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh has been appointed to the Uttar Pradesh BJP state executive committee for the first time, nearly three months after his acquittal in a sexual harassment case. The committee, formed ahead of a meeting to plan for the 2027 UP Assembly elections, includes seven leaders from Gonda district. Singh was previously denied a BJP ticket for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections amid the allegations, with his son contesting and winning in his place.
