Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Minister Priyank Kharge has said that instead of worrying about the selection of Congress candidates, the BJP leaders should focus on resolving the internal conflicts and issues of rebellion within the saffron party.
Addressing presspersons at his residence here on Wednesday, Mr. Kharge said that Leader of Opposition in the Assembly R. Ashok and BJP State president B.Y. Vijayendra should bother about internal rifts in their own party instead of worrying about All India Congress Committee president Mallikarjun Kharge staying off electoral battles.
Mr. Mallikarjun Kharge is INDI Alliance’s chairman and he has got great responsibilities to tour and campaign, not only for the Congress candidates but also of other political allies across the nation. So Mr. Mallikarjun Kharge will not be contesting the Lok Sabha polls this time, he clarified.
