JAMMU, June 22: The case of a BJP worker from Rajasthan posing as Dr Jitendra Singh, a well known Jammu based BJP leader and a nationally known Diabetologist, has been reported from Bharatpur in Rajasthan.
This man, who is a namesake of Dr Jitendra Singh and whose full name is Dr Jitendra Singh “Faujdar”, had also unsuccessfully contested the Rajasthan Assembly election in 2003 from Nadbai, Bharatpur constituency as a BJP candidate.
The most interesting part is that when Jammu based Dr Jitendra Singh was nominated to BJP National Executive Committee for the second consecutive term in March this year by the BJP National President Rajnath Singh, this Bharatpur based Dr Jitendra Singh sent out a fictitious press hand-out to this effect as if he had been appointed. What is more, this man also arranged felicitation functions for himself in and around Bharatpur hailing his nomination as BJP National Executive Committee (NEC) Member by displaying the name in the list of BJP NEC members which was actually the name of Jammu based Dr Jitendra Singh. He has also been reportedly going around throwing his weight in local administrative circles as BJP National Executive member.
The case of this imposter has now been brought to the notice of BJP Party High Command and a formal complaint regarding this has been filed by former BJP district President of Bharatpur Rajvir Singh who has produced local newspaper clippings of felicitation functions held in the honour of this imposter and also released to the Rajasthan press the photographs of real NEC member Dr Jitendra Singh who is presently based at Jammu. In his complaint to Party High Command, Rajvir Singh writes that this imposter is not only misusing the name of BJP but also making a laughing stock of the BJP workers.
