Northwest Delhi MP Udit Raj joins Congress, terms BJP 'anti-Dalit'

Terming the BJP "anti-Dalit", disgruntled BJP MP from northwest Delhi Udit Raj joined the Congress on Wednesday after being denied a ticket and slammed his former party saying it wants Dalit votes but not a leader from the community who speaks his mind.
Raj, who joined the Congress after meeting party president Rahul Gandhi here this morning, alleged that the BJP wanted a "deaf and dumb" Dalit leader and he could never fit in as he could not stay quiet on matters related to the scheduled castes.
