The party does not believe in individual milestones and works as a team, says BJP president Nitin Gadkari in an exclusive interaction with Anil Pandey
B&E: You have completed more than two years as the president of BJP. What are your achievements?
Nitin Gadkari (NG): We in the BJP do not believe in individual achievements. We work as a team and take collective decisions by consensus. As far as the party’s overall performance is concerned, we periodically review our performance and take effective measures to further improve it.
B&E: Factionalism was rampant in BJP when you became the national president. Have you been able to control it?
NG: I am afraid your assessment about the BJP is untrue. There is no factionalism in our party.
B&E: It is said that some central leaders of the BJP have fueled the Yeddyurappa and Vasundhara Raje episodes. What have you done to stop this?
NG: All these are completely baseless and motivated allegations against the BJP’s central leadership and deserve to be dismissed with contempt. I am sorry to use harsh words. But it is becoming a fashion in a section of the media to defame BJP leaders.
B&E: One of the groups within BJP made sure that Khanduri lost the elections. In UP, Yogi Adityanath and Varun Gandhi openly issued statements that harmed the party. Yet you did not take any action against them.
NG: There is no basis for such allegations. We have analysed the factors responsible for our below expectations performance in UP and are taking corrective measures to galvanise the party for the upcoming 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
B&E: What, according to you, were the reasons for the party's defeats in UP and Uttarakhand?
NG: We have not lost the Uttarakhand elections. We beat anti-incumbency. It is very unfortunate that we could not form the government. About UP, I have already stated that we are trying to improve things in the state.
B&E: Lack of communication among senior leaders was one of the main issues discussed at the recently held coordination meeting of RSS and BJP. How will you ensure proper communication?
NG: All existing party mechanisms are being streamlined to further improve communications at all levels in the party and between the party and the BJP-ruled state governments.
It is being said that no party will win a majority in 2014. Do you think the BJP will be in a position to form the government?
NG: I am confident that the BJP-led NDA will form the next government after the general elections, whenever they are held.
