RSS asks BJP to put its house in order

The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh headquarters in Nagpur has taken a serious note of the intense on-going power struggle and squabble that are plaguing the BJP and has asked the party to put its house in order. HT Image The expulsion of the senior leader Jaswant Singh for writing the controversial book on Jinnah and subsequent crisis triggered within the party before and after the *Chintan Baithak* at Shimla, the Sangh parivar feels the party should overcome from the present crisis by once again going to its core ideology. Talking to Hindustan Times, the RSS ideologue and former spokesman MG Vaidya pointed out that the party had lost its credibility and as a result faced a humiliating defeat in the recent Lok Sabha elections. “The time has come for the top leaders to vacate the posts for others,” he lamented and indirectly said that the leader of the Opposition LK Advani and the party president Rajnath Singh should make passage to others by relinquishing their posts. “The way Arun Jaitley was made the leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha without taking others into confidence speak volumes about the way the decisions are taken arbitrarily in the party,” he added.
