Praveen Kumar to join BSP
The Hindu
Likely to get the post of State president
Eight days after R.S. Praveen Kumar resigned from Indian Police Service, the air is being cleared on his future course of action with sources close to him indicating that he is likely to join Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP). While the former top cop did not confirm or deny such reports, it is reliably learnt that Central BSP leaders were going to announce his induction into their party in the first week of August. Going by his position as former IPS officer with an outstanding service for 26 years, the BSP leaders are said to be contemplating on giving him the top post in the State apparently that of party president. Those close to him said that Mr. Praveen Kumar opined that joining any other party would eventually translate to bargain for a position. “He was gravitating towards BSP because that was close to his ideology with Dalits and Bahujans playing key roles in party operations,” they said unwilling to be identified.
