Surat: Former MLA from Abdasa and BJP leader in Kutch, Jayanti Bhanushali has proposed to step down from the post of State BJP vice president in a resignation letter sent to State BJP president Jitubhai Vaghani. Bhanushali has proposed to resign following an application filed against him in Surat police. Bhanushali has described the complain against him and his family as conspiracy. He has sought impartial probe into this. He said he wants to leave party post till the time he is cleared from allegations. Bhanushali said he would continue to work as party worker.

So what is the application about?

A 21-year old girl of Nana Varachha area in Surat has submitted an application against the leader. She has alleged that after passing standard 12th she came into contact with the leader in connection with admission in fashion design college. The leader, she has alleged, pointed revolver on her head and also brandished sharp weapon and sexually abused her. The girl has made allegation that the leader also captured a video. With a video in his possession, he abused her in hotel in Ahmedabad and also sent different gents to her. His driver and others also are involved in this, the girl has alleged.

Whether there’s truth in this complain or the allegations are fictitious and part of conspiracy against the leader will be known after investigation.

Bhanushali said, three months ago he had asked police, home minister and all others that such baseless applications will be filed against him. Bhanushali made it clear that he was facing no FIR and the complain was just in the form of application in police station. Bhanushali said everything will be clear in upcoming days. He said this was a political conspiracy by opponents to finish him. ‘The way I sent some persons to jail for blackmail to my niece, the accused have now reacted through an application. I don’t know the complainant and I have nothing to do with Surat.’

Meanwhile, Surat Police Commissioner said, the application submitted by a girl has been handed over to Kapodra police station inspector for primary investigation. Further procedure will take place after primary check of facts.
