Girish Vyas quits all BJP posts and primary membership in support of Anil Sole

Nagpur: Infighting in the Nagpur BJP has escalated ahead of the graduates' constituency election. On the last day for withdrawing nomination papers, former MLA Girish Vyas resigned from all posts in the BJP. He has also resigned from the party's primary membership.

Vyas has taken the step in support of former MLA Anil Sole, who has decided to contest the election as an independent, going against the party's decision. Vyas's resignation following Sole's stand has set off discussion in Nagpur politics.

The BJP has made Sudhakar Kohale its official candidate from the graduates' constituency. However, discontent within the party over the distribution of tickets is now coming out in the open. After Sole decided to contest as an independent, Vyas's resignation is being seen as a major political blow to the party.

Both Girish Vyas and Anil Sole are former MLAs, while Sudhakar Kohale is the party's official candidate. Along with all BJP posts, Vyas has also resigned from the party's primary membership.

The choice of candidate has created discontent in the BJP. On one hand, the party leadership has given the ticket to Kohale; on the other, Sole has challenged the party by deciding to enter the fray as an independent. In this situation, Vyas's resignation has added to the significance of these developments.

Since Vyas has taken this step to back Sole, talk of the ongoing internal tussle in the Nagpur BJP has grown further.

The resignation on the final date for withdrawing nominations has raised several political questions. Differences and discontent among the party's senior leaders over the choice of candidate are now surfacing publicly.

Political circles are now watching how much of a challenge Sole's independent candidacy will pose to the BJP's official candidate Sudhakar Kohale. What effect Vyas's resignation will have on the election equations will also be important.

The ticket given to Kohale, Sole's decision to contest as an independent against the party's decision, and Vyas's resignation have increased the BJP's political difficulties in Nagpur ahead of the graduates' constituency election. All eyes are now on the final list of candidates and the possible impact on the election result.
