Bhopal: The Congress MP from Dewas in Madhya Pradesh Sajjan Singh Verma has embarrassed his party brass by saying that while Congress leaders don’t venture out of their air-conditioned offices and cars, RSS workers eat only ‘chana’ and campaign hard for the BJP in remote rural areas.
At a meeting with party workers on Thursday, he also exhorted them to ignore elderly leaders who have crossed the age of 60 and concentrate on party national president Sonia Gandhi, AICC general secretary Rahul Gandhi and the Congress flag. The MP’s remarks came to light after local media in Neemuch reported them. The state Congress leaders tried to distance themselves from the remarks. Leader of Opposition Ajay Singh said, “I have not heard his statement or what he said but Congress leaders and workers are all working together and we will win elections 2013 and form government in Madhya Pradesh.’’
