New Delhi: Congress Rajya Sabha MPSanjay Singh on Monday announced his resignation from the party and Parliament and his decision to join BJP. "There is complete lack of communication in Congress party and the leadership is completely missing.
Unfortunately, Congress is living in its past and is unaware about future. I felt that in today's India, PM Narendra Modi is leading country with the vision of "sabka saath, sabka vishwas'. He is walking the talk and that's why whole country is with him and so am I," he told the media at his residence with his wife Ameeta by his side.
