Senior BJP leader lK Advani on Tuesday praised Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan for organising a rally of party workers in Bhopal on September 25 to pay tributes to party’s principal ideologue Deen Dayal Upadhayay.
In a post on his blog, Advani said no other political party in the country had the capability of organising such a meeting of its own workers as the BJP had.
“It will always remain etched in our memories because of the all time record of number of party activists who assembled there and that too activists of just one State of Madhya Pradesh.”
He added, “On the stage were all central leaders of the party. Assembled at the Bhopal Jambori Maidan in front of them were exactly 6,49,702 party workers who had formally registered themselves for this unique conclave.”
