Chandigarh: Senior BJP leader Anil Jain, in-charge of the party’s Haryana affairs, on Monday ruled out the resignation of its state unit chief Subhash Barala following the arrest of the latter’s son in a stalking case here.
“Subhash Barala has nothing to with the Vikas Barala case. The law is taking its own course. There is no reason for Subhash Barala’s resignation,” Jain said in a statement here.
Jain’s statement ruling out Barala’s resignation comes a day after Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar also said that the BJP state unit chief had “nothing to do with incident”. The opposition has been mounting pressure seeking Subhash Barala’s resignation on the issue.
“Subhash Barala has nothing to do with this incident. It is an individual happening, the accused will face action once found guilty. This is my official stand, this was my stand yesterday and today also this is my stand. After this, on this issue, no question, no answer,” Khattar had told reporters yesterday.
