July 19, 2015 13:51
Ahead of the Monsoon session, BJP chief Amit Shah today discussed with senior Union ministers the strategy to counter the opposition in Parliament and is also meeting party chief ministers Vasundhara Raje and Shivraj Singh Chouhan, both of whom are facing controversy.
Rajasthan Chief Minister Raje, whose alleged involvement in the Lalit Modi row has seen her being targeted by Congress, and her Madhya Pradesh counterpart, who is under attack over the Vyapam scam, will be presenting their side of the story to the party so that the government can effectively deal with the opposition, sources said.
External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and Information and Technology Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad were among those who met Shah.
Chouhan is also likely to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi later in the day.
The Congress has sought resignations of both Chouhan and Raje. It has also demanded that Swaraj quit for helping former IPL
boss Lalit Modi.
