Ramsharan Nautiyal Joins Congress After Leaving BJP Ahead of Uttarakhand Polls
Ramsharan Nautiyal, father of singer Jubin Nautiyal and former BJP leader, joined the Congress party in the presence of senior leaders including Kumari Selja and Ganesh Godiyal. He resigned from the BJP citing humiliation and lack of discipline within the party. Nautiyal had contested the 2022 Uttarakhand Assembly elections on a BJP ticket but lost. His return to Congress, where he was previously associated, is seen as a boost ahead of upcoming assembly polls.
