New Delhi, July 26 (press ki taquat bureau):\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong>The recent addition of Satnam Singh Sandhu to the BJP’s ranks in the Rajya Sabha has increased the party’s strength in the upper house to a total of 87 members. This development was officially confirmed in the Rajya Sabha bulletin released on Thursday evening, solidifying Sandhu’s affiliation with the BJP within the House.<\/p>\n

According to the bulletin, Sandhu formally joined the BJP on July 22, well within the six-month timeframe from his oath-taking ceremony on January 31. As a result, he is now recognized as a member of the BJP in accordance with the provisions outlined in the Tenth Schedule to the Constitution.<\/p>\n

With Sandhu’s entry into the BJP, the party’s representation in the Rajya Sabha has seen a notable increase. However, despite this boost in numbers, the BJP still falls short of a majority in the upper house. As a result, the party may need to seek external support in order to successfully pass any significant legislation or bills in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
