    What's the story

    Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Uma Bharti expressed her disappointment over being excluded from the party's Jan Ashirwad Yatra.

    The yatra was flagged off on Sunday by BJP National President JP Nadda in the poll-bound Madhya Pradesh.

    As per reports, Bharti claimed that the BJP might be scared of her popularity and "nervous" that she would draw all the public attention with her presence.

    Speaking about not receiving an invite to the yatra, Bharti stated, "Maybe they (BJP leaders) are nervous that if I'm there, then entire public attention will be on me."

    "If Jyotiraditya Scindia helped them form the government (in 2020), even I helped them form a bigger majority government (in 2003)," news outlet NDTV quoted the 64-year-old BJP leader as saying.

    3) मुझे जन आशीर्वाद यात्रा के प्रारंभ में निमंत्रण नहीं मिला यह सच्चाई है कि ऐसा मैंने कहा है लेकिन निमंत्रण मिलने या ना मिलने से मैं कम ज्यादा नहीं हो जाती । हाँ अब यदि मुझे निमंत्रण दिया गया तो मैं कही नहीं जाऊँगी । ना प्रारंभ में ना 25 सितंबर के समापन समारोह में । @BJP4MP

    Recalling Bharti's key contributions to MP

    Notably, Bharti played a crucial role in dethroning the Congress government led by Digvijaya Singh in Madhya Pradesh in 2003, securing a three-fourths majority for the saffron party.

    As per NDTV, Bharti was expelled from the BJP for indiscipline in 2005 and readmitted in 2011.

    In 2013, the 64-year-old was appointed one of the 13 vice presidents to guide the party ahead of the Lok Sabha polls in 2014.
