'Over my dead body': Kapil Sibal slams Jitin Prasada, says he can never think of joining BJP

Firstpost  

New Delhi: Senior Congress leader Kapil Sibal on Thursday said Jitin Prasada’s crossing over to the BJP represented politics of “prasada” or personal gains and asserted that for him a switch to the saffron party could only happen over his dead body. Sibal, along with Jitin Prasada, was among the Congress’ group of 23 leaders who wrote to party chief Sonia Gandhi seeking an organisational overhaul last year. In a tweet earlier, Sibal had said the question is will Jitin Prasada get “prasada” from the BJP, or is he just a ‘‘catch’’ for UP elections. Slamming Jitin Prasada’’s switch to the BJP and his hailing the saffron party, Sibal told PTI that the norm in politics now is “Prasada will go for prasada”.
