Jethmalani says BJP has paralysis
Tags:
BJP Rajya Sabha MP and eminent lawyer Ram Jethmalani has attacked his own party for 'suffering from some inexplicable inertia and paralysis' when the country is battling 'poverty and corruption'.
He has also attacked BJP chief Nitin Gadkari for not being able to announce a candidate for the presidential polls.
In a strongly worded letter written May 23 to the BJP chief, Mr Jethmalani said, “I presume you are concerned about the sickness of our party which registers no response to the even greater sickness of the ruling party (Congress). The nation is not wrong in thinking there are skeletons in BJP’s cupboard.”
Accusing his party of not functioning as an effective Opposition, the Rajya Sabha MP said, “Nation wants feverish action. What does it get instead? Tongue- tied leaders busy pulling down one another and creating the unmistakable impression that they are suffering from inexplicable inertia and paralysis.”
He also attacked the party’s silence on its presidential candidate. “Your strange somnolence on the occasion of the imminent election of the nation’s President is showing up our bankruptcy of talent, that we cannot announce a name better than the current finance minister,” Mr Jethmalani said.
