Jitin Prasada, Once Close To Rahul Gandhi, Joins BJP Ahead Of UP Polls

Former Union Minister Jitin Prasada, once close to Rahul Gandhi, crossed over to the BJP today, in a huge blow to the Congress ahead of the Uttar Pradesh election next year. Jitin Prasada, 47, is the second high-profile former Rahul Gandhi aide to defect to the BJP since Jyotiraditya Scindia left last year. He had denied rumours in 2019 that he was leaving the Congress. Sources say at the time Priyanka Gandhi Vadra had convinced him to stay.
