The BJP has made an undeclared policy of keeping leaders above the age of 75 years out of active politics. Due to this, many senior leaders including Lal Krishna Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi are outside the Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha and are part of the guide board. On Thursday, SP’s Rajya Sabha MP Ram Gopal Yadav said that BJP should bring such leaders above 75 years of age, who are healthy. He said that such experienced leaders can increase our knowledge.
On the occasion of thanking the 72 members retiring after completing their tenure in the House, Prof. Ram Gopal Yadav said that very senior members come to this house. But those who have completed 75 years of age in BJP have now been stopped from being sent to the House. He said that such senior BJP leaders should also be brought in the house, who are completely healthy even after completing 75 years and can make the house proud with their experience.
Ramgopal said – Speaker will also agree with me, Naidu’s silence
Ram Gopal Yadav while talking to Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu said that he would also agree with his view. However, Naidu did not comment on this. While congratulating the members who have completed their tenure, he said that some of these members will come back, but some members will not be able to come but it is expected that wherever they stay, they will continue to serve the nation and society with their experience.
