RSS says Kiran Bedi was a mistake, blames BJP brass for Delhi loss


New Delhi, Feb 17 (Agencies) : Saying that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has made strategic mistakes in the recently concluded Delhi Assembly Elections, the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) has turned into the saffron group’s internal critic after the Delhi debacle.

It seems what the saffron brigade has been shying away from admitting publically, the mouthpiece of the RSS, ‘Panchjanya’ has done it all for them. In the two-part cover story titled 'Akankshaon ki Udaan' of its latest issue, the Organiser has raised questions on the choice of Kiran Bedi as the Chief Ministerial candidate for Delhi even as it pointed out how overlooking party workers may have cost BJP in the elections.

The fortnightly asks several uncomfortable questions to the party in its post poll critical analysis such as why did BJP lose? Was the decision to make Kiran Bedi CM candidate correct? Would the results have been different had Dr. Harsh Vardhan or any other BJP member from the state been chosen as CM candidate?

Not only this, the mouthpiece also points out and questions the decision to protect the former IPS officer as the CM candidate for Delhi because Krishna Nagar that was an extremely safe seat for the BJP and the party had continued to retain that for several years, even that seat went in favour of AAP. Therefore, massive questioning is being followed

Also, after the selection and protections questioning, the mouthpiece has also questioned the leadership crisis in the party. The RSS has made its annoyance and anger after the Delhi debacle quite clear and has done it publically.

The Hindu Nationalist has asked few direct questions to BJP which are certain to put Narendra Modi’s party to serious embarrassment.

Was the party was too dependent on the Modi wave? “Or did BJP lose because of lack of unity in the organization, planning and most importantly respect for the sentiments of the workers?”’ These are some common questions the RSS has mentioned in its post poll critical analysis.

While on one hand the BJP has accepted to many of the ‘mistakes’ mentioned in the mouthpiece of RSS, the party, however, claims to take collective responsibility for the disastrous results of the Delhi Elections for the party.

    IT IS NEITHER BEDI NOR MODI WAS A MISTAKE. IT IS AAP COMMITTED MOON TO VOTERS. EVEN IF AAP CAN PROVIDE MOON TO DELHI VOTERS BJP CANNOT DO THE SAME BECAUSE OF RESPONSIBILITY TO LEAD THE COUNTRY TO THE PATH OF DEVELOPMENT WITHOUT ANY PARTIALITY TO ANY STATES AND FOR THE SAKE OF POWER IT CANNOT PROMISE THE WAY AAP DID. RSS/SHIVSENA SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS FACT INTHE INTEREST OF NATION.

    For win many fathers..unfortunately for loss only one father.This scenario I predicted when K.Bedi crash landed to BJP tent in Delhi.Modi-Amith Sha had free hand in doing ion of candidates.Sushma Sawaraj sent to China during election days tha being she is ex CM of Delhi!Rajnath was rare in appearance for election rally.Advani was engaged in watching TV of the drama of K.Bedi!!!This clean sweep in fact,a great shock to Modi gang and implications in political affairs of BJP could manifold hereafter.Kiran Bedi lost everything of fame and name.The tsunami waves of Kejri washed out Modi's wave which is wonders in Indian political history.

    RSS blames BJP top brass.
    That's the way to go about it!
    Not like Congress....!
    Gunning for some small Ass.

    Whys is RSS overreacting? Kiran Bedi was not a bad choice. May be not the right timing! For me it was the right decision, when Delhi was going through a bad patch of women security, rapes, and lack of empowerement! Delhi BJP unit had too much infighting, it would have gone Karnataka way, even if it had won!... and RSS you will thank me, BJP losing was a best thing that can happen!. they have taken the focus out of Modi and put Kejriwal under spotlight! Knowing Kejriwal I can assure you, he will find flimsy excuse and run away! And people are smart too.. here is one I got on Whatsapp...

    If AAP forms the government in Delhi, will the BJP government in the center allow it to function properly?
    Ans:-
    Modi worked for 13 years in Gujarat out of which 11 years were of UPA. Surrounding states of Maharashtra,Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh were ruled by Congress at one point or other.
    And this was the time states used to get funds through planning commission which was governed by UPA.
    The person who wants to work will always find a way,the person who doesn't will always make an excuse.
    I hope that clears it

    so just....vhe vhe vhe

BUT DELHI BJP STATE UNIT WAS VERY HAPPY WHEN THEY LOST IN DELHI, AS THE BJP CENTRAL LEADERSHIP OVERTAKEN THE STATE UNIT. WHY THIS RSS NOT ADVISED BJP BEFORE THE ELECTION NOT TO MAKE KIRAN BEDI AS CM CANDIDATE.
