"Due to emotional reasons I had left the BJP five years back. Now I am back home and will contribute to the victory of the BJP and towards making Narendra Modi the prime minister of India," Tomar told IANS.
The defection has left the Congress red faced as it will have a candidate on the electronic voting machine who is now in the rival camp.
