BJP candidate from Bidar Assembly Constituency Ishwar Singh Thakur, who lost to sitting MLA and Congress leader Rahim Khan in the recently concluded elections, has said that a section of BJP workers and leaders had conspired to ensure his defeat.
Addressing a press conference, Mr. Thakur held Bidar MP and Union Minister Bhagwant Khuba responsible for his defeat and also alluded to the possible role of D.K. Sidram in his electoral debacle.
“There was definitely a conspiracy hatched by my own party leaders to get me defeated. The BJP leaders worked in favour of rebel Janata Dal(S) candidate Suryakant Nagmarpalli who managed to eat into a sizable vote of the BJP. Our party leaders switched off their cell phones soon after the result was declared,” he said.
