BHOPAL: Home minister Narottam Mishra on Tuesday took a dig at a viral video that shows a conversation between former Congress CMs Kamal Nath and Digvijaya Singh while they were sitting on dharna.
Congress retorted that BJP should look at keeping its own house in order, pointing out Guna MP K P Yadav’s letter of complaint against Scindia supporters to BJP national president JP Nadda.
“Kamal Nath has told Digvijaya Singh that he is the third son of Indira Gandhi,” Mishra said. “I heard the conversation, which was so dictatorial. There is no democracy left in Congress. After listening to the viral video of two former CMs in an amusing argument in the presence of party workers, one can only think about the future of Congress,” the minister remarked.
Former PM Indira Gandhi had called Nath her ‘third son’ when she came to Chhindwara to campaign for him in the 1980 Lok Sabha elections. It was the first time Nath was elected to Lok Sabha.
Reacting to Mishra, Congress spokesman Narendra Saluja said, “Our leaders talk to each other. Narottam Mishra should stop bothering about Congress and look into the disputes between leaders in his party first. He should speak about the dispute between state BJP chief V D Sharma and CM Chouhan. And also about the letter written by Guna MP KP Yadav to complain against Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia.” tnn
