NEW DELHI: BJP has taken a swipe at Congress amid internal squabble in the opposition party in states like Karnataka and Bihar, saying that its own members are at the forefront of making India “Congress-free”.BJP spokesperson Pradeep Bhandari said while Congress functionaries in Karnataka are jostling for power, a reference to the factional fight involving CM Siddaramaiah and his deputy DK Shivakumar, they are in Bihar raising questions on the Gandhi family leadership by blaming corruption in ticket distribution and failure of ‘vote-chori’ campaign for the party’s big loss in the recent assembly poll. “Congress is fighting Congress. Its workers are taking the lead in making India Congress-mukt. They believe their future is dark until the party is relieved of the Gandhi-Vadra family’s leadership,” he told reporters.”Corruption and nepotism are two things which unite Congress,” he alleged. In Jammu and Kashmir, Congress is unable to find a spokesperson, he said, mocking the party for its internal wrangling in different parts of the country.
