- •Mahendrajeet Singh Malviya, who joined BJP after the 2023 Assembly elections, announced his return to Congress.

- •Meena emphasized that BJP's politics are based on ideology and principles, unlike those who seek power for personal gain.
- •He likened BJP to a vast ocean, unaffected by a 'drop' leaving, and claimed new entrants become 'clean' upon joining.
