JAIPUR: Addressing the BJP state party working committee meeting in the city on Tuesday, party president J P Nadda advised workers and leaders to conduct a self-analysis of their contribution to the party before claiming any position within the organisation. This was Nadda’s first official visit to the state since he became the party’s national president.
Speaking at Birla Auditorium, Nadda underlined the message that one has to be relevant in politics, while asking party members to introspect what they have done for the party.
“Do you know how much you have contributed to the party? How much have you developed yourself? How useful are you and how much acceptable are you in the party," Nadda asked.
Referring to his meetings with party leaders, Nadda said that some of them had said that they had worked 20-30 years for the party and he has done nothing for them. “I asked them what they had done in the last month,” he said.
Though he didn’t point fingers at anyone, his remarks were seen as related to the power struggle within the party in the state. This year, former chief minister Vasundhara Raje and state BJP president Satish Poonia had met him twice in Delhi over differences between the two. Commenting on the leadership, he said that you become a leader when you take everyone together.
