Anil Vij, Haryana Home Minister, Quits BJP and Joins INC

Political Earthquake in Haryana as Senior Leader Switches Sides

Landmark Move Shakes Up State's Political Landscape

Haryana's Home Minister, Anil Vij, has resigned from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and joined the opposition Indian National Congress (INC) in a major political development.

Vij's move comes amidst growing discontent within the BJP over internal issues. He is the second senior leader to quit the party in recent months, following former Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar's resignation.

The INC has welcomed Vij's decision, calling it a "major boost" to the party's presence in Haryana. Vij brings with him decades of political experience and a strong support base in the state.

• Anil Vij, Haryana Home Minister, has resigned from the BJP and joined the INC.
• The move is seen as a major setback for the BJP in Haryana.
• Vij is a senior leader with a strong political base in the state.

The BJP has dismissed Vij's resignation as an isolated incident, but it has raised concerns about the party's internal stability.

Analysts believe Vij's move could have significant implications for the upcoming state elections in Haryana.

According to a recent survey by the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS), the INC is currently leading in the opinion polls in Haryana.

The BJP has been in power in Haryana since 2014, but it is facing growing challenges from the INC and other opposition parties.

Vij's resignation is seen as a major blow to the BJP's chances of retaining power in the state.
