‘Congress vs Congress On Display’: BJP After Digvijaya Singh Praises RSS-BJP ‘Organisational Power’ The post quickly drew attention as the Congress has often criticised the BJP and the RSS on several issues, making Singh’s remarks stand out sharply from the party’s usual line. Senior Congress leader and Rajya Sabha MP Digvijaya Singh has triggered a fresh political controversy with an unexpected praise of the BJP and the RSS. Singh shared a black and white photograph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi from the 1990s and highlighted the organisational strength of the Sangh-BJP ecosystem. The post quickly drew attention as the Congress has often criticised the BJP and the RSS on several issues, making Singh’s remarks stand out sharply from the party’s usual line.

The photograph is believed to have been taken during the swearing-in ceremony of former Gujarat chief minister Shankersinh Vaghela in 1996. Referring to the image, Singh said it reflected how grassroots workers in the RSS and the BJP could rise through the organisation to become chief ministers and even prime ministers. He described this journey as the “power of the organisation". BJP reacts The BJP was quick to seize on Singh’s post. Party spokesperson CR Kesavan taunted the Congress leadership and said the tweet had exposed how the party was run in an “autocratic and undemocratic" manner. Another BJP spokesperson, Pradip Bhandari, went further, saying the post showed open dissent within the Congress. “Digvijay Singh openly dissents against Rahul Gandhi. He makes it clear that under Rahul Gandhi the Congress organisation has collapsed. Congress vs Congress on display," Bhandari said. However, when asked about his post, the veteran Congress leader said, “I have only praised the organisation. I have always opposed the RSS and Prime Minister Modi. I remain against the policies of the RSS and Modi ji." Click here to add News18 as your preferred news source on Google. Latest India News along with detailed National Updates .
