Bhupesh Baghel further said, Nandkumar Sai’s life is full of simplicity. They eat grains but do not eat salt. Struggled whole life to serve the tribals. Keep fighting for the poor. After the formation of our government, we have been publicly praising our work on the decision taken in the interest of tribals.
Bhupesh Baghel said, talks about Nandkumar Sai joining the Congress were already going on. But last night Nand Kumar Sai made up his mind to join the Congress, and sent the letter to Kumari Selja. After which Kumari Selja gave this information to the National President of the party, Mallikarjun Kharge. Then he allowed entry into the Congress. After which PCC Chief Mohan Markam got membership. What did Nandkumar Sai say after taking membership, read in 5 points..
1. This decision is a very difficult decision in life. I and my family members have been in BJP since the time of Jansangh. Have been with people like Atal Bihari Vajpayee and LK Advani. Used to follow Atal ji.
2. The BJP party of the era of Atal and Advani. That party is no longer in that form. Circumstances have changed. Chhattisgarh had small villages and towns. I have studied the work of Bhupesh Sarkar. Small villages and towns now became cities.
3. We used to say that there is a relation of the whole country, cow is our mother. But CM Bhupesh Baghel has given it a new look. Narva, Garva, Ghurva, Bari scheme has proved effective for the public. I liked that Bhupesh Sarkar made Ram Vanagaman Path.
4. As on date, I was not holding any post in BJP. I was a simple worker. Even if you do not get a post in the party, but how can work be done. This could have been asked.
5. Congress is doing good work under the leadership of Bhupesh Baghel. Party is not important, work has to be done for the general public. Chhattisgarh will be good if we work together. Know what happened this morning…
Senior BJP leader Vishnu Dev Sai and Organization General Secretary Pawan Sai and some other leaders reached the residence of Nandkumar Sai and tried to meet him. But he was informed that he is in Delhi. When asked to contact him by phone, there was no response. Met Nand Kumar Sai’s son at the residence, and then the BJP leader returned.
Now let’s know what Sai has written in his resignation…
False allegations are being leveled against me. My dignity is constantly being hurt, due to which I am feeling hurt. Urging him to accept his resignation, he had said that after very deep consideration, I resigned from all my posts in the BJP and the primary membership of the party.
A three-time Lok Sabha MP and three-time MLA, Sai has previously been the state president of the party in both Chhattisgarh and undivided Madhya Pradesh. Say, in his resignation letter, alleged that his colleagues were plotting. And making false allegations to tarnish his image. Due to which he felt very sad.
Political journey of Nandkumar Sai
Sai, a prominent tribal face of the BJP and hailing from northern Chhattisgarh, was first elected as a Janata Party MLA in 1977 from the Tapkara seat (now in Jashpur district) in Madhya Pradesh.

1. Sai became a victim of the betrayal of his own people: The first leader of the state was the opposition, it was the dream of the tribal CM, Sai does not eat salt for a special reason. Nandkumar Sai…. Stayed. MLA, MP and the first leader of the state was the opposition. Later, gradually his own people started reducing his stature. In politics, only respect is not enough, position matters. For a long time, Nandkumar Sai was being neglected in the BJP in terms of the post. The leaders of his own organization distanced themselves from him and gradually the situation got so bad that Sai has now resigned from the BJP. Read full news…
2. Big blow to BJP in CG, Nandkumar Sai left the party: Tweeting that conspiracies were happening against me, it hurt my self-esteem Senior tribal leader of Chhattisgarh BJP Nandkumar Sai has resigned on Sunday. He has written by tweeting that my image and dignity in the party was constantly being hurt. Self respect is first for me. So I am left with no other option. He has been a five-time MP, three times MLA, twice state president and leader of the opposition.
