Anita Katyal | Fadnavis really cosying up to RSS? Cong lets J’khand down

Deccan Chronicle  

Though relations between the Bharatiya Janata Party and its ideological mentor, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, have recently improved after a brief period of tension, there is considerable speculation about Maharashtra deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis’s recent disclosure that he has sought the Sangh’s help in the upcoming Assembly elections. This was also an effort at damage control following BJP president J.P. Nadda’s remarks in the run-up to the Lok Sabha election that the party had shed its dependence on the RSS. Though it is acknowledged that the party needs a new leadership in the state, veteran leaders like former chief minister Digvijaya Singh continue to call the shots. This has angered local Congress leaders who complained that the party’s principle of denying tickets to candidates who have lost two elections is conveniently overlooked in Mr Patel’s case only because he is backed by Digvijaya Singh’s backing.
