News: Internal Conflicts Peak in Gujarat BJP

Internal conflicts within the Gujarat BJP have reached a peak, with party workers now openly criticizing BJP leaders. A letter against BJP MLA Amul Bhatt from the Maninagar constituency, State Treasurer Dharmendra Shah, who was recently removed from his position as in-charge of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, and other leaders has gone viral. This letter was sent via post to BJP corporators and ward presidents within their own constituency. The letter also details the properties and contracts these leaders have with the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation.

Understand This, and the Whole Game Becomes Clear

Before delving deeper into this internal conflict within the BJP, let’s explore the background of these leaders. About a year ago, during the appointment of the Mayor and other officials in Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, there was no announcement regarding the appointment of the whip. An internal conflict arose within the BJP over whether to reappoint Arun Singh Rajput as whip or choose a new one. While it seemed likely that Arun Singh Rajput would be reappointed, Sheetal Daga, considered a close associate of the then AMC in-charge Dharmendra Shah and a top contender for the position of AMC Mayor, was ultimately appointed as whip. Sheetal Daga has been elected twice consecutively from the Maninagar ward. Her husband, Anand Daga, a former corporator, currently holds a contract with AMTS buses.

I Informed My Workers and Corporators About the Letter: Amul Bhatt

In this letter bomb, the primary target of allegations is Amul Bhatt, MLA from Maninagar and former chairman of the standing committee. He told Divya Bhaskar that he was aware of the letter sent to his corporators. His corporators informed him about it. Bhatt believes the letter was written as part of internal conflicts by someone with ill intentions. He dismissed the anonymous letter as baseless, asserting that all his assets and financial details have been declared in election affidavits. He mentioned that the letter had no names and that his workers and corporators were informed about the letter.

Former State Treasurer and ex-AMC in-charge Dharmendra Shah told Divya Bhaskar that troublemakers are always present in politics, and given the current atmosphere, such things are expected.

My AMTS Contract Has Been Ongoing for Years: Anand Daga

Whip Sheetal Daga’s husband, Anand Daga, mentioned that he has had a contract with AMTS for years. He believes that a disgruntled person wrote the letter to harass him.

Ward Presidents Surprised by the Letter

The letter also questions how BJP leaders amassed wealth overnight and who provided them with election tickets. After reading this letter, corporators and ward presidents were left in shock. The exclusive details of this letter, which was sent a week ago to corporators and ward presidents in the Maninagar constituency, are with Divya Bhaskar. The letter’s contents are as follows.

‘Exposing Dharmendra Shah’s Group’ – What’s in the Letter?

The letter alleges that Anand Daga, Amul Bhatt, Vipul Sevak, and Dhaval Rawal are all part of the same corrupt group. It accuses them of using their positions for financial gain. The letter claims that Daga has influenced others with his money, and that Dharmendra Shah has been involved in AMTS buses and garbage truck contracts for a long time. According to the letter, Amul Bhatt, who later became the chairman of the standing committee, joined forces with Daga for financial dealings. The letter details instances where Bhatt allegedly worked to benefit Daga.

Ward Presidents Shocked by Revelations

The letter alleges that Sheetal Daga’s appointment as whip involved financial deals and questions how she accumulated so much wealth overnight. The letter claims she owns shops, a 2-crore office, and two SUVs. It accuses her of earning money through deals with contractors during her tenure as chairman of the standing committee.

The letter also mentions that these issues will be brought to the attention of the Prime Minister, Patil Saheb, and all MLAs. It concludes by questioning who granted tickets to such leaders and calls for a private investigation.
