Medal-winning wrestler Babita Phogat will join the BJP today at Haryana Bhawan in national capital Delhi, said her father and Dhronacharya awardee Mahabir Phogat
While talking to Hindustan Times, Mahabir Phogat confirmed their joining by saying that after a long discussion they have decided to join the BJP.
"BJP government did a great work by scrapping Article 370 of the constitution from Jammu and Kashmir and bifurcating the state into two union territories. Haryana government led by Manohar Lal has given a transparent government and recruited youths in a fair manner. I and Babita are in the way and heading towards Delhi", he added.
According to the Phogat family, Babita had resigned from inspector of Haryana police. Mahabir was the JJP's sports wing in-charge in the state. The Phogat family hails from Balali village of Dadri and there is speculation Babita may be fielded from either Badhra or Dadri assembly segments of Dadri district.
