Jammu, 30 November 2025:
J&K BJP Media Incharge Dr. Pardeep Mahotra delivered a sharp critique of the Congress party, describing its newly launched open recruitment drive for the Media & Publicity Wing as a “desperate attempt to mask the unprecedented leadership crisis gripping the party from top to bottom nationwide.”
Dr. Pardeep stated that although Congress is presenting the move as a democratic initiative, the truth is far more concerning. For decades, he said, the party has relied structurally and ideologically on a single family for leadership and decision-making, leading to the collapse of internal democracy. “The Congress has functioned like a hereditary enterprise. Key positions, responsibilities, and visibility remain confined to one bloodline, while countless capable senior leaders are pushed to the margins,” he remarked.
He added that Congress’s unwillingness to confront its organizational shortcomings, ideological confusion, and persistent reliance on dynasty politics has created a PAN-India leadership vacuum. Instead of promoting credible grassroots leaders, the party continues to launch and re-launch the same family faces despite repeated public rejection.
According to Dr. Pardeep, the entrenched culture of nepotism has sidelined even experienced leaders, triggering a steady exodus of respected figures and leaving the party structurally weak and increasingly disconnected from the masses.
He further noted that Congress’s disconnect extends beyond organizational issues to fundamental democratic values and India’s cultural ethos. “The Congress has consistently misread the aspirations of this nation. Its positions often appear detached from India’s cultural consciousness, national pride, and civilizational identity—an approach repeatedly rejected by the people,” he said.
Calling the new “talent hunt” for spokespersons and panelists a superficial PR exercise, Dr. Pardeep argued that the initiative aims to artificially manufacture political faces because the party’s internal leadership bench has collapsed.
He concluded by saying that the people of India trust the BJP because it is a performance-driven, nationalist, culturally grounded, and genuinely democratic party, where leadership is earned rather than inherited.
