Kanshi bullies Arjun Singh into changing seat

Bahujan Samaj Party president Kanshi Ram claimed that Congress Working Committee member Arjun Singh has shifted to Hoshangabad Lok Sabha constituency on his advice.

Kanshi Ram said his party would not field a candidate against Arjun Singh, who was earlier scheduled to contest from the Satna constituency.

The BSP chief said he would meet Arjun Singh soon. He would make it clear that his party would not contest the Hoshangabad seat.

Further, Kanshi Ram said his party would not oppose former Union minister and Congress general secretary Madhavrao Scindia if he agreed to shift from the Gwalior constituency.

"In such a situation, it will be our responsibility to ensure victory to both Arjun Singh and Scindia," he said.
