Delhi: AAP leader Harsharan Singh Balli joins BJP

New Delhi [India], November 10 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and former Delhi Minister Sardar Harsharan Singh Balli on Sunday joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
He joined the party in the presence of Delhi BJP chief Virendraa Sachdeva and his colleagues Subhash Arya and Subhash Sachdeva.
Singh's son Sardar Gurmeet Singh 'Rinku' Balli also joined the BJP.
Balli's return to the BJP comes after nearly four years. He had left the saffron party in January 2020 to join AAP in the presence of then Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and then Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia.

Balli, a former MLA from Hari Nagar assembly constituency from 1993 to 2013, also served as Industrial minister during Madan Lal Khurana's government in Delhi.
Recently, the AAP government in Delhi and BJP as the opposition are at loggerheads over the rising air pollution in the national capital. Two weeks ago, Delhi BJP leaders staged a protest against Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann over air pollution concerns in the national capital at Kapurthala House, reporting that 108 incidents of stubble burning were recorded in Punjab.
A delegation of leaders sought a meeting with the Punjab CM to submit a memorandum but could not meet him.
Delhi BJP president Sachdeva stated that 108 cases of stubble burning were reported in Punjab on October 26 alone, yet ministers from the Delhi government frequently place blame on neighbouring states Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. (ANI)
