Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is facing internal challenges following the recent defection of its leader B B Tyagi to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), intensifying the ongoing political rivalry between the two major players in Delhi’s political landscape. This move, viewed by some as an indication of dissatisfaction within the BJP’s Delhi unit, adds to the shifting alliances ahead of the upcoming elections, where both parties are vying for dominance.
Tyagi, a well-established figure within the BJP, reportedly cited discontent with the party’s current policies and direction as a key reason for his switch. His departure reflects a broader disillusionment among certain BJP members, particularly in Delhi, where AAP has maintained a stronghold in recent years. Insiders suggest that Tyagi’s decision may influence other BJP members who feel sidelined or discontented, as AAP continues to position itself as a strong alternative, especially with its governance initiatives centered around education and healthcare.
