Former Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on March 11, a day after quitting the Indian National Congress. Addressing the press, Scindia said Congress was no longer what it used to be and that it is living in denial.

Here are top quotes of Scindia’s speech after he was formally inducted in the BJP:

1. There have been 2 life changing events for me – September 30, 2001- the day I lost my father and the second, march 10, 2020 - when I decided to choose a new path for my life.
2. The Congress party is not anymore the party that it was earlier.
3. I would like to thank JP Nadda ji, PM Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah that they invited me to their family and gave me a place in it.
4. I can say with confidence that the aim of public service is not being fulfilled by that party (Congress). Besides this, the present condition of the party indicates that it is not what it used to be.
5. Dream we saw for Madhya Pradesh has been shattered in 18 months.
6. Today's Congress is living in denial.
7. The Congress is unable to serve the country.
8. Have always believed that serving the country is our foremost duty, politics just an instrument.
9. For 'Bharat Mata' and the country to progress.
10. Farm loans not waived even after 18 months. Congress has not fulfilled its promises in MP.
