Electing the President for BJP had never been this much difficult as it is always used for a unanimous election leaving no space to dissidence. But, with Mahesh Jetmalani throwing his hat in the race against the present President of the party Nithin Gadkari, the party tumbled with its other senior leaders like Shatrughan Sinha, Jaswant Sinha, Yaswant Sinha, Ram Jetmalani too raising their voices against Nitin Gadkari leadership. They argue that facing elections with such a corrupted leadership will affect the party adversely. The only positive sign for Nithin is the strong support of Sangh Pariwar, which gives an edge over his dissidents in the party.

When, his Purti Power Project scam has surfaced in the media, it is Jetmalanis, who first sharply react and shoots letter to party high command demanding Nithin to step down. Obviously, Jetmalanis who hates him by heart irks to see him again getting ready to renew his position in the party. Hence, Mahesh Jetmalani has decided to throw a challenge to him in the election.

However, in the wake of Sangh Pariwar support, Jetmalanis can’t beat him in party presidential election. But, they were succeeded in grouping some seniors against him. Some seniors in the party are said to be proposed Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi’s name for the party president post. Since the election will be conducted on Wednesday, there may be a chance for a change in political equations inside the party within the next few hours.
