"Many MLAs are ready but perhaps they want to wait for a few more months due to technicality," Sudip Roy Barman said
Two Tripura rebel BJP MLAs including top leader Sudip Roy Barman have joined the Congress. The BJP has called it a conspiracy to topple the government.
Mr Barman and Ashis Kumar Saha joined the Congress at the home of party leader Rahul Gandhi in Delhi in the presence of party General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. Congress in-charge of Tripura Ajoy Kumar was also present.
Mr Barman had a detailed discussion with Priyanka Gandhi before joining Congress.
"Many MLAs are ready but perhaps they want to wait for a few more months due to technicality. Everyone is disillusioned with the party. I feel Tripura can go to polls along with Gujarat and Himachal," said Mr Barman after joining Congress.
