Madhya Pradesh BJP MLA Sparks Row, Alleging Irregularities In Party's Membership Drive

Ajay Vishnoi expressed disappointment with this new trend, where money is being used to bolster membership numbers artificially, implying that genuine party workers were being sidelined in favor of those seeking shortcuts to leadership positions.

Madhya Pradesh BJP MLA and former minister Ajay Vishnoi has sparked debate within his party by raising concerns over its ongoing membership drive in the state. In a recent post on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter, Mr Vishnoi questioned the process, implying that the campaign had been outsourced to external agencies and money was being spent to inflate membership numbers.

In his post, Mr Vishnoi highlighted a personal experience in which he received a phone call from an agency offering to increase BJP membership numbers on a contractual basis. He expressed disappointment at the growing trend of individuals using such services to gain favor with the party.

"Today I received a call from an agency on my phone, asking for a contract to increase BJP membership from my account. Obviously, there are many such agencies. By taking their services, some self-serving leaders must be trying to rise through the ranks by flattering the organization," his post read.
