After being a loyal Congresswoman for years, yesteryear actress Kushboo Sundar on Monday joined the BJP. She had resigned from the Congress party after saying that some elements within the party and with no knowledge of ground realities have been ruling the roost.

On joining the BJP, Kushboo said that no leader in the saffron party has corruption charges against him or her. "People have re-elected the BJP. The Congress made so many promises in his manifesto without fulfilling them," Kushboo said.

She said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is the right person to take the nation forward. The senior actress met with the BJP national president Jagat Prakash Nadda on Monday afternoon.

The buzz is that the saffron party is going to field her in the upcoming Tamil Nadu Assembly elections, in 2021. If not, she will be brought into the Rajya Sabha.
