Arun Jaitley addresses the media in Gandhinagar on the party's decision to retain Vijay Rupani as the Gujarat CM. This is what Jaitley said.
"Vijay Rupani has been chosen as Legislature party leader unanimously, Nitin Bhai Patel as the deputy Legislature party leader in a meeting today. Will inform you all about the swearing in, soon.
"The process of elections is that we set the process into motion as Central Observers, call upon elected MLAs to propose a name.
"Bhupendra Singh proposed these two names for the leader and Deputy leader, it was supported by 5 other MLAs who came to the dais and supported them. This was then put to the house which they unanimously accepted. I also asked the members if anybody had any alternative proposal, and since there was none, the two were declared as unanimously elected."
