Came into controversy after withdrawal of support from government
Let me tell you that the independent MLA of Maham Balraj Kundu had announced the withdrawal of support from the government. Kundu had said that he withdrew his support from the Chief Minister supporting the corrupt government. Kundu had demanded a probe by accusing Manish Grover, a former Minister of Cooperation in the previous BJP government, of corruption. It was due to this controversy that he announced the withdrawal of support.
Vij formed SIT on the complaint
Former Rohtak MLA Manish Grover was accused of corruption by MLA Balraj Kundu. Kundu had alleged that Manish Grover had scammed molasses from Sugar Mill while being the Cooperative Minister. Apart from this, corruption was also done in Rohtak Municipal Corporation. He had said that if the government did not take action on Manish Grover, he would withdraw support. He then complained to Home Minister Anil Vij, on which Vij had formed a SIT.
Kundu’s withdrawal of support did not make any difference to the government
In Haryana, BJP got 40 seats, JJP 10, Independents 7, INLD 1, Halopa 1 and Congress 31 seats. The BJP formed the government with an independent figure of 7 and 10 JJP MLAs with a figure of 57. With the withdrawal of Kundu’s support, the government was left with 56 MLAs. Haryana has a majority figure of 46. In such a situation, the withdrawal of Kundu’s support did not affect the government.
