Was thrown out of BJP like Vibhishan was banished from Lanka: Kirti Azad in Lok Sabha

Trinamool Congress MP Kirti Azad Tuesday alleged that he was removed from the BJP for flagging corruption in cricket, the way Vibhishan, the younger brother of Ravan in the Hindu epic Ramayana, was banished from Lanka. Participating in a debate in the Lok Sabha on the supplementary demands for grants, excess grants and the Manipur budget, the MP from West Bengal’s Bardhaman-Durgapur seat claimed that he had flagged a case of corruption in cricket. But no discussions took place, and he was made to leave the party like Vibhishan was banished from Lanka, claimed Azad, who was a member of the Indian cricket team that won the 1983 cricket world cup.

“I know their secrets,” he said.
