All is not well in the Bharatiya Janata Party in Himachal Pradesh. Workers, leaders and sympathisers know it but do not talk about it openly. The BJP puts up a united front on camera. But there’s no missing the frosty ties between two party leaders from the hill state who have now graduated to the central leadership.
The tension was palpable when union minister Anurag Thakur met BJP national president Jagat Prakash Nadda in Delhi in August. According to ANI, Anurag had “called on” Nadda along with Himachal chief minister Jairam Thakur.
