Denied a ticket, Advani loyalist lashes out at BJP
March 23, 2014  11:53
Dissent seems to be the flavour of this election season in the BJP.

After party veterans Murli Manohar Joshi and Jaswant Singh made their displeasure clear about being ousted from their respective constituencies, it was the turn of Harin Pathak, a 7-time MP from Ahmedabad East constituency, to express his displeasure about the BJP's ticket tactics.

Pathak, a L K Advani loyalist, has been replaced by actor Paresh Rawal.

In a press conference held on Sunday morning, Pathak claimed that the BJP high command was distributing tickets to "even those who have attacked the BJP and the RSS in the past".

He claimed that BJP workers in Gujarat were extremely upset at the BJP leadership for denying him a ticket.
