THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Newly appointed BJP spokesperson, Tom Vadakan has told Kerala Kaumudi Flash that he has prepared a blueprint to strengthen BJP in Kerala. My blueprint has received nod from the party's central leadership. “The blueprint is prepared on the basis of Kerala’s voting pattern, communal equations and the agenda behind election victory. I have discussed the blueprint with BJP leaders of Kerala,” Tom Vadakkan told Kerala Kaumudi Flash.

Probation period is over

It’s been one-and-a-half-year since I joined BJP. During this period, the party has sent me for many sensitive discussions. For me, it was like a probation period. Party has understood my capacity and commitment and the leadership appointed me as its national spokesperson. I haven’t asked for any position in BJP. My stand was to let the party decide on the basis of my merit. I joined this party on the basis of its ideology which is based on national spirit therefore I thought it's not right to bargain with the party for positions. Unpredictable events are going on in my life therefore I cannot talk about joining parliamentary politics.

BJP’s signal

Appointment of people like me is an indication. It shows that BJP stands with the minorities in the country. The false propagation that BJP is an anti-minority party is the creation of its adversaries. Congress, which proclaims itself as a secular party has implemented more communal plots than any other political party in this country. In Congress, candidates are determined and party key posts are given on the basis of community representation.

No written script here

Congress is strongly protesting against farm bills but actually Congress in its poll manifesto has promised to the people that they will implement the farm bills once they come to power. They are opportunists. They are opposing a law which they couldn’t implement because of lack of power. If they are opposing everything then I will be forced to say that they are not playing the role of creative opposition. When I was the Congress spokesperson, I was instructed to act on the basis of a pre-written script. In Congress, spokespersons had no role but in BJP things are different. I didn’t have to face any issue as of now, spokespersons need to understand the basic line of the party and then the dais is theirs.

To those who are willing to join…

Congress should answer the question if more of its leaders will flock to BJP, it's not BJP’s concern. Congress leaders are leaving the party because of the inefficient party leadership. In BJP, the party’s merit is given priority over individual’s merit. 24 senior Congress has sent a letter to its leadership. They have given their sweat and blood for the party. It’s leadership should start some serious thinking over the future of the party. Am saying for the attention of those Congressmen who want to join BJP, here considerations like father, mother won’t be given but you will have complete autonomy within the party. I am just a common man. BJP has not asked about my father or about how much assets I have.

Full time agenda

I was interested in contesting from Thrissur while I was in Congress. The Tom Vadakan in Congress is a different one this is Vadakan 2.0. I am ready to do whatever responsibility the party gives me and it is my full time agenda.
