Nagpur, Dec 22 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) President Nitin Gadkari has said he would hold internal consultations before deciding on re-inducting estranged leaders.
He was reacting to a question on taking back firebrand leaders like Uma Bharti, Kalyan Singh and K N Govindacharya.
“I have not got gone to Delhi. After going, I will hold discussions with party leaders, then only I can tell what is the decision,” he told reporters here.
Gadkari said a decision on finalizing the name of the party’s state unit chief for Kerala would also be taken after consultations with colleagues in New Delhi.
“There are different views on taking a decision. I have just arrived yesterday in Nagpur after taking charge. I was in Delhi only for four-five hours. We work as a team. I will hold discussions with my colleagues, then we would take a decision on that and then I would be able to say anything,” he said.
After major changes in the BJP, Gadkari replaced Rajnath Singh as the President of the BJP while Advani stepped down for Sushma Swaraj to be elected as the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha. (ANI)
