Former Minister of State (Mos) and Congress leader Kripashankar Singh on Wednesday joined Bhartiya Janata Party in Mumbai. Singh joined BJP in the presence of former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and party state president Chandrakant Patil at State Office in Mumbai Nariman Point at 12 pm.

Maharashtra BJP leader Madhav Bhandari said "Kripashankar Singh has been a big leader and has a relevance in Mumbai politics, he has been in touch since last few months."

When asked if he is being given any big responsibility being a north Indian face and as BMC elections are close, Bhandari said, "Definitely Singh has been a big face in the city, however, whatever responsibility will be given it will be decided by the party and will be announced soon."
