Congress decisions taken at dining table, BJP follows inner party democracy: Dr Jitendra

Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh on Tuesday took a veiled swipe at the Congress, stating that “decisions in Congress are taken at the dining table, often by mother and son,” while the BJP follows inner party democracy where no one can predict who will be the next president.

"If internal democracy is being upheld anywhere today, it is in the BJP," he said.

Addressing the BJP Sangathan Parv here, Dr Jitendra, in a speech, infused with political commentary and historical reflection, traced the BJP's rise over the years, highlighting the sacrifices of workers over decades. He recalled the early days when BJP's presence in the state was negligible and party workers were often ridiculed.

"Today, the very idea of being a BJP worker commands respect. That's the transformation we've witnessed," he said, attributing much of this shift to the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
