Singer Kanhaiya Mittal takes u-turn, says will remain with BJP

Chandigarh, Sep 10 (UNI) In yet another u-turn, singer Kanhaiya Mittal on Tuesday announced he would be back with the BJP.
The singer, known for his song "Jo Ram ko laye hain, hum unhen layenge", (Who have brought Ram, we will bring them), a couple of days back had left the BJP after being denied a ticket to contest the assembly elections and hinted at joining the Congress. However, apparently the Congress too has snubbed him.
On Tuesday, he issued an statement in which he said, "I have realised my Sanatani brothers and sisters, especially BJP's central leadership loves me and cares about me, so I won't join Congress and will remain with the BJP."
