Bhopal: BJP, national vice president Prabhat Jha on Monday asked party’s national organizational general secretary Ramlal as to who would speak on behalf of the party on issues related to media. Ramlal is here to review the election management work. Vijayvargiya also said that media monitoring was okay but it should be clarified as to who would be accountable for discussion on issues related to media. Ramlal asked the duo to speak to him later on this matter.
The central leadership of the party has appointed its national spokesman Sambit Patra to take responsibility of media. Patra has also taken up a hotel on Hoshangabad Road for media centre.
