Internal anger has flared up in the BJP over the appointment of ward presidents. BJP, which used to talk about giving positions to workers with a clean image, has created an uproar as controversial individuals have been given positions in the organization.

A controversial appointment of Dhrumil Patel, as the ward president of Ahmedabad’s Ghatlodiya, has reportedly created internal flare in the BJP circles, as per reports.

Dhumil Patel was reportedly expelled from the Chief Minister’s Office in Gandhinagar, raising questions about the appointment of the top leadership in the city.

Patel had been working with Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel since 2017, however, he was reportedly accused of corruption, to get preferred positions to certain police personnel, suggested the sources.

Apart from this, rumours were also rife about an office of a party plot in Ahmedabad’s CG Road, considered to be the epicentre of Patel’s corruption. 

Reportedly, Patel had organized a birthday party in which top officials were present, adding to the controversy.

With internal discussions heating up, he was expelled from the office but now his appointment as a ward president has brought the old murmur back to the surface.
