Former Union Minister and MP Jayant Sinha received a show-cause notice from the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday. The notice cited Sinha’s lack of interest in “organizational work” and “election campaigning” after the party announced the name of Manish Jaiswal as its candidate for the Hazaribagh Lok Sabha seat.
Jayant Sinha, son of former Finance Minister and Trinamool Congress leader Yashwant Sinha, had recently expressed his desire not to contest the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Notice from the BJP Jharkhand unit, states “You are not taking any interest in organisational work and election campaigning ever since the party declared Manish Jaiswal as the candidate from the Hazaribagh Lok Sabha seat. You did not even feel the need to exercise your vote. The party’s image has been maligned because of your conduct,”
The notice further stated, “As per the instructions of State President Shri Babulal Marandi ji, you are requested to give clarification in this regard within two days,”
The Hazaribagh MP disclosed that he had asked BJP President JP Nadda to release him from “direct electoral duties” so that he could concentrate on his work on climate change. “I have asked the Hon’ble Party President, Shri @JPNadda ji, to release me from my direct electoral responsibilities so that I can concentrate my energies on addressing climate change in India and globally. Naturally, I’ll keep collaborating with the party on matters of government and the economy. For the past ten years, I have had the honor of serving the people of Bharat and Hazaribagh,” Sinha wrote in a post on X.
