Shimla: Rejecting all media stories on BJP poll debacle report, the Bharatiya Janata Party today said that the party hadn't prepared any draft on poll debacle. Interacting with the scribes after end of chintan baithk, BJP president Rajnath Singh said, “We have not prepared any draft on BJP poll debacle."
Responding to a question on leadership in BJP, Singh said Advani will continue to lead us. In a clear message to dissidents, Singh said that indiscipline would not be tolerated.
He said that India needs bi-polar politics and BJP's road ahead will be detailed in the party's October conclave.
On BJP's expansion plan, Singh said that it would soon have an action plan for its revival and admitted that its ideology of "cultural nationalism" needed to be articulated clearly for the expansion of its geographical and social base.
"We will come out with a future action plan, you can call it the road ahead, on the basis of suggestions during the three-day chintan baithak (introspection session). The larger goal would be the social and geographical expansion of the party," said Singh.
He said he would shortly convene a meeting of all party general secretaries and other leaders to prepare the action plan that would be presented at the national executive meeting expected to be held in September or October.
Rajnath Singh said it was unanimously felt during the discussions that to expand the party's social base, the BJP should ensure better participation of women, weaker sections, the poor, farmers, Scheduled Castes and Tribes, in the party and the government.
The BJP chief said the party was committed to its ideology of "cultural nationalism and integral humanism. It is both comprehensive and inclusive, where there is no scope for discrimination between individuals".
