I didn’t allow children of BJP MPs to get tickets in recent state polls: PM Modi

March 16: “Dynastic politics is dangerous for democracy. That is why children of BJP MPs and leaders were not given tickets on my instruction during the recently concluded state polls,” said Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday. PM Modi said that many BJP leaders were seeking poll tickets for their children in the recently concluded Assembly elections, but were denied the same.

Allowing tickets to them would mean upholding dynastic politics, said PM Modi. “It’s me who denied them the party tickets,” added that Prime Minister.
