NEW DELHI, 21 Jul:\u00a0<\/strong> The BJP on Sunday criticized Congress leader Jairam Ramesh for apparently “live-tweeting” some of the issues raised by different parties at an all-party meeting, and said the opposition party should consider sending a “more seasoned hand” next time.<\/p>\n Ramesh, who attended the meeting, posted on X while the deliberations were going on, “In today’s all-party meeting of floor leaders chaired by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, the JD(U) leader demanded special category status for Bihar.<\/p>\n \u00a0The YSRCP leader demanded special category status for Andhra Pradesh. Strangely, the TDP leader kept quiet on the matter.”<\/p>\n BJP’s IT department head Amit Malviya said there is a certain propriety and protocol one associates with these all-party meetings.<\/p>\n He said, “There is free and frank exchange of ideas followed by media briefing. But a look at Jairam Ramesh’s timeline and it appears he was live tweeting the proceedings.<\/p>\n Next time, the Congress should consider sending a more seasoned hand for these meetings.”<\/p>\n Ramesh’s post had a political angle as he highlighted the demands of the two regional parties — JD(U) is a BJP ally as well — which is a tricky issue for the central government. Officials have argued that Finance Commission’s recommendation accepted by the government preclude such a possibility.<\/p>\n The Congress leader also took a dig at the TDP, another BJP ally.
