After the announcement of the date for the Assembly election in Madhya Pradesh, a rebellion is brewing in the party with some leaders unhappy with ticket distribution. A former Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament (MP) Lakshmi Narayan Yadav has expressed his displeasure after the party failed to give a ticket to his son Sudhir Yadav for the forthcoming Assembly polls.
The former BJP MP said, "I have been rebellious from the beginning because I never tolerated injustice. Now, injustice was done to Sudhir Yadav (his son, referring to not getting a ticket), if he [Sudhir] rebels against it then he should do so, there is no problem." When asked what he would have done in such a situation, the former MP said that if he was in such a situation, he would contest elections. He also said that if if his son Sudhir would contest the election then he would campaign for him. When asked whether he had spoken to the party high command for the ticket, he said, "The BJP high command is in a strange situation at this time. They are blind, deaf and complete dictators."
Meanwhile, the former MP said that he would not campaign at all if his son Sudhir decides on not contesting the elections. On the other hand, BJP leader Sudhir Yadav said, "I will take my decision to contest the election after consultation with workers and supporters."
