BJP is divided, full of ambitious leaders: Gogoi

A day after BJP President Rajnath Singh accused UPA government of failing on all fronts, state Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi today shot back at the opposition party saying it was "completely divided" and "full of ambitious leaders".
"BJP is saying they will come back again next year. Forget about Assam, they can't do anything in India. Their leadership is completely divided. BJP has the highest number of Prime Minister candidates. The party is full of ambitious leaders," Gogoi told reporters here.
The senior Congress leader said Assam "was in darkness" during NDA rule at the Centre and that the BJP understands the issues affecting the north-east region least among all political parties.

Comparing it with the Congress, Gogoi said the party has a high command and everyone listens to its directives, but it is not the case with BJP as too many leaders give too many orders.
Refuting BJP's claim of capturing power at the Centre in 2014, he said Congress will do better than last time in the next general elections.
In his first visit to Assam after becoming the national president of BJP, Singh had yesterday charged the UPA government that it has failed on all fronts, whether economic, security or diplomatic.
Commenting on Singh's charges, Gogoi said: "What were they doing during their tenure? They were saying 'India Shining', but was doing nothing. Assam was under darkness at that time. Teachers were not getting salaries. Secret killings were on high. They are just shedding crocodile tears for Assam and the region.
