Arun Jaitley,one of BJP's finest orators,was known to pack a punch in what he said & how he spoke,by focusing on substance & context. It's unbelievable to think that he mentored Sambit Patra who has made a career out of being shrill & out of context,thus making him obnoxious.

Truth is that the finest spokespersons of the BJP are currently the top-rung leaders in the govt. There is a huge vacuum within the BJP to find people who can speak well in Hindi & English. He's good with the theatrics so at least he keeps pro-BJP conversations relevant.

But BJP really needs to train a new set of spokespersons because this shtick that Patra uses to get eyeballs (much like a Clickbait headline) with his one-liners and whataboutery to counter tough rebuttals or questions is
TOO PREDICTABLE. He's been doing it for 6 years.

In fact Patra's signature style cockiness coupled with theatrics & political incorrectness is creating a perception about BJP - that BJP doesn't have answers.If you thought BJP's communication wing is sorted,think again. It's vacant.And it needs serious debaters.Not a clown.
