In a shocking statement, Jay Dholakia revealed the reason behind his departure from BJD. Dholakia alleged that the party failed to show support or even consult him during his father's illness. "Neither did they call me nor support me, despite being a lifelong member. I wasn't even invited to my father's Dasah preparation meeting," he stated.
Dholakia joined BJP to fulfill his father's dream of making Nuapada number one, claiming that staying in BJD wouldn't have made this possible. His statement has sent shockwaves through the political circles, sparking intense debate and speculation.
