August 25th, 2009 - 9:30 pm ICT by ANI
New Delhi, Aug.25 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party on Tuesday issued show-cause notice to its disgruntled leader Arun Shourie over his outburst against the party and its leadership in the media.
BJP has sought clarification from Shourie over his remarks made in an interview to private TV channel during a programme on Tuesday.
The much-anticipated action came Shourie’s remarks that termed the party as “Kati Patang” (a kite without its sting attached) and describing BJP President Rajnath as “Alice in Blunderland” and “Humpty Dumpty” were viewed as a matter of indiscipline.
Shourie had also urged the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh to takeover the charge of the BJP and suggested to remove all its top leaders. (ANI)
