Bitter critic Murli Manohar Joshi writes congratulatory letter to PM, Shah
May 20, 2016 13:09
"The strategy and workers' hard work has brought a revolutionary change in the country's politics. For the first time the BJP has established a strong presence from Kanya Kumari to Kashmir and Dwarka (Gujarat) to Kamrup (Assam). Workers in other states where elections are due, especially Uttar Pradesh, will be inspired by this victory."
That is BJP magdarskhak Murli Manohar Joshi's letter to PM Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah after the party's spectacular win in Assam and its inroads in Kerala and West Bengal.
This is huge capitulation from Joshi, who along with LK Advani was pushed into what the party calls, 'Magdarshak Mandal' -- the Group of Mentors, which has little say in the policy decision of the party.
This note is the closest to capitulation from the group who had criticized PM Modi and Amit Shah after the Bihar debacle last year.
"The results of the Bihar elections show that no lesson has been learnt from the fiasco in Delhi," said the opening line of the statement which bore the signature of party veteran and former Union finance minister Yashwant Sinha. The statement had been issued following a meeting at the residence of Murli Manohar Joshi.
Five months later, this letter, by a key member of the Magdarshak Mandal, has caused a flutter in party circles.
As of now, there has been no response from the party.
