‘BJP Parliamentary Board shows party rewards old workers, values experience of karyakartas’

New Delhi: While the omission of Union Minister Nitin Gadkari and Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan from BJP’s top decision-making body, the parliamentary board on Wednesday, raised eye brows, party sources said the reconstituted panel was evidence of “BJP’s organisational strength, with emphasis on diversity”. “The new Parliamentary Board constituted by the party shows how the party rewards old workers and values the experience of its karyakartas,” a BJP source said. “People like BS Yediyurappa, Satya Narayan Jatia, K Laxman have given their lives to the party, building it brick by brick from the start. Their coming to the highest decision making body shows offers a glimpse of how the Party values its esteemed karyakartas,” the party source added. Sources also hailed the decision to give pride of place to different regions of the country as well as including women in the top panel. Don’t Miss: Nitin Gadkari, Shivraj Singh Chouhan dropped from BJP’s top decision-making body in major revamp “There is evidently an emphasis on diversity. Sarbananda Sonowal is from the Northeast, L Laxman and BS Yeddyurappa hail from the South. In Iqbal Singh Lalpura there is a Sikh,” another party source said. Sources said the party had made the decision to include longtime Haryana leader Sudha Yadav, hailing her as a “self-made political leader”. Yadav’s husband was martyred in the Kargil War. Yadav’s inclusion “shows the topmost respect to women and families of the armed forces”. According to the party, in its present reconstituted form, the Parliamentary Board has “representation from the South and Northeast at an all-time high of sorts”.
