BJP's 'shehzadas' list runs long

New Delhi: Even as it attacks the Congress for its "dynastic politics", the BJP appears to be charting a similar course going by the number of sons and daughters of its leaders in the fray

Congress general secretary Shakeel Ahmed, however, accused the BJP of double standards and said that not just the party but also its allies were also dynastic.

"Modi regularly criticises dynastic politics. The BJP has three allies - the Badal dynasty, the Thackeray dynasty and now the Paswan dynasty," Ahmed countered.

The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) headed by Punjab Chief Minister Prakash Singh Badal, the Shiv Sena headed by Uddhav Thackeray and Bihar's Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) headed by Ram Vilas Paswan are part of BJP-led National Democratic Alliance.

Ahmed said he was a third generation Congressman and was proud of this fact.
