BJP to conduct `political exam'

Special Correspondent

BANGALORE: If you think that examinations are only for students, you are wrong. Because, the Bharatiya Janata Party is holding "political examination" for its party workers as part of the training camps launched recently.

During the two-day training camp, party workers will have to undergo various sessions including the session on answering two question papers. While one question paper deals exclusively with the State budget to test the knowledge of the party workers on the budget, the other one tests the political knowledge of the party workers with respect to the party.

Sample these questions on the budget. Who are the beneficiaries under the Bhagya Lakshmi Scheme, Amrutha Scheme, Adarsha Vivaha Scheme and Kutira Jyothi Scheme. How much money does each beneficiary get under these schemes?

Some of the questions related to political affairs are as follows: Who is the party national president, Which are the BJP-ruled States, Write the names of four national office-bearers of the party, How many BJP MLAs are there in the State, What is the number of BJP MPs from the State, What is the relationship between the BJP and the RSS?
