Asansol (West Bengal) [India], December 18 (ANI): A day after resigning as Asansol civic body chief and Trinamool Congress (TMC) district president, rebel party leader Jitendra Tiwari on Friday rejected rumours of joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
Slamming the ruling party for removing his security, Tiwari said that the government took the step as it did not realise his worth.
"When the state govt thought my life was precious, it gave me security. Now as the govt feels my life has no worth, my security has been removed. I am going to Kolkata to meet my daughter. I am in no way going to join the BJP," he said while on his way to Kolkata from Asansol.
