The BJP is the only party where an ordinary worker can become a leader and get the ticket to contest an election, said party state co-incharge Sanjay Tandon while addressing mediapersons in Jubbal-Kotkhai today.

“The BJP is a party of workers while the Congress is a family-based political front where common people have no say. It is only the BJP where an ordinary worker can become the Prime Minister of the country or the Chief Minister,” he added.

Tandon said that in Himachal Pradesh also, the Congress gave ticket for the byelections to the members of big families. Pratibha Singh, wife of former Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh, is the Congress candidate for the Mandi parliamentary byelection and in the Jubbal-Kotkhai and Fatehpur constituencies, family members of veteran politicians had been given preference.
