Raj Babbar from Faridabad |
June 10 2013 |
Cinema actor and Congress Parliamentarian Raj Babbar wants to change his constituency Firozabad to some other place. Nowadays, he is considered to be an important part of the Rahul Brigade. Firozabad is the same seat from where he defeated Mulayam’s wife Dimple. In a changed political scenario, the Yadav family is hell-bent on avenging the defeat at the hands of Babbar; and Firozabad is a Yadav bastion. Akhilesh is at the helm of affairs in UP, so it might be extremely tough for Babbar to repeat his success story in Firozabad this time, too. He was actually eyeing the Fatehpur Sikri seat in Agra. But his most reliable man Raj Kumar Chaahar changed his loyalties and is now with the BJP. Chaahar had a positive influence in the constituency. Thus, the BJP wants to launch him from Fatehpur this time. In the changed scenario, Babbar wants to change his seat and is on the lookout for one. His close friend in the Congress Vinod Sharma has suggested the name of Faridabad. At present, the seat is with the Congress and Gujjar politician Avtar Singh Bhadana is the Parliamentarian from there. Sources reveal that Vinod Sharma has had Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda talk with Babbar about this. Anti-Bhadana camp is giving the logic that he should be made to contest from a seat that has a majority of Gujjars. In the past, he has also been a Parliamentarian from Meerut in UP. It is believed that Raj Babbar wants to get his intentions known to Congress prince Rahul Gandhi and will take a decision after getting a green signal from him. |
