Joshi resignation shot in the arm for Modi
June 08, 2012  14:44

Joshi, who is a former RSS pracharak and was a general secretary of BJP, has requested Gadkari that he be "relieved from the party". This was accepted by the BJP president. 

 

This new development comes as a shot in the arm for Modi as he did not want Joshi to have any role in the party. Both the BJP and RSS have been divided on the manner in which Joshi had to resign from the National Executive as Modi put this as a condition for him to attend the Mumbai conclave. 

 

Since then, the BJP and RSS mouthpieces have written for or against the two leaders. While BJP mouthpiece Kamal Sandesh and RSS mouthpiece
Panchajanya hit out at Modi, another RSS mouthpiece Organiser spoke in Modi's favour.
