Madhya Pradesh: Digvijaya Singh is like a termite to Congress, says Narottam Mishra

BHOPAL: State BJP on Tuesday came down heavily on senior Congress leader Digvijaya Singh for his “RSS works like termites” comment made in Indore on Monday. Home minister Narottam Mishra said, “The Congress is like a termite for this country and Digvijaya Singh is like a termite for the Congress party. They cannot say this, but can see how he has eaten into the Congress in this state.”
Mishra further said, “The Congress is in a dilapidated state everywhere.The Congress is wobbling and stumbling. You must have seen the Congress’ president in Karnataka and his videos. These are the people who are eating into the Congress like termites.” He was referring to Karnataka Congress chief DK Sivakumar.
Not just Narottam Mishra, state BJP president VD Sharma seemed also irate with Digvijaya Singh’s comparison of RSS to termites. Sharma said, “People like Digvijaya Singh think that if they talk about RSS, he will keep getting covered by the media. Digvijaya Singh stands by anti-nationals and supports terrorism. This foundation of his has been vanquished from the country because of RSS ideology.”
The state BJP president claimed that Digvijaya Singh has become outdated and there is no longer any place for him. “He is become inappropriate for the state and the nation. That is why he keeps giving such baseless statements about RSS, the world’s largest social organization that works for the country round the clock. Digvijaya Singh does not have the right to speak on a pure and chaste organization like the RSS,” Sharma said.
Addressing a gathering of Congress workers in Indore on Monday, Singh had said that RSS works like termites, damaging the country from beneath but not seen on the surface.
