In a significant development on the day of the third phase of Lok Sabha polling, renowned actor and TV personality Shekhar Suman has made a surprising entry into the Bharatiya Janata Party.
Speaking at the party headquarters in the presence of senior BJP leaders, including National General Secretary Vinod Tawde and National Media Department In-Charge Anil Baluni, Suman expressed his unexpected journey into politics, stating, “Even I did not know until yesterday that I would be sitting here. A lot of things happen in life. Sometimes you don’t know what you are supposed to do and you get a direction from above and you follow it. I have come here with a positive outlook and I would like to thank God for directing me to come here.”
Asserting his commitment to the nation, Suman highlighted the importance of action over words, expressing gratitude towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and BJP chief JP Nadda, among others.
The surprise addition to BJP’s ranks also included Radhika Khera, former national coordinator of the Congress’ media department, who quit the party on Sunday and joined BJP alongside Suman.
