BJP leaders may discuss Advani’s role

New Delhi:,The RSS wants no hiccups in the run-up to the government formation: It especially wants that the role of party patriarch L K Advani is defined in the new dispensation, which is commensurate with his stature and standing, reports here,

The RSS has accordingly asked top BJP leaders, including its president Rajnath Singh, his predecessor Nitin Gadkari and Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Arun Jaitley, to meet Narendra Modi in Gandhinagar on Wednesday and discuss this matter as well as the party’s strategy after the counting of votes for the Lok Sabha polls.

In the government led by Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Advani, 86, was the deputy Prime Minister. In the Lok Sabha polls held in 2009, he had been named as the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate, but the party failed to dislodge the UPA government at the Centre. The BJP was reduced to a mere 116 seats in the Lok Sabha.
