Modi protege and new Gujarat CM designate Anandiben Patel faces a revolt
by Guest Tue May 20, 2014 6:23 pm
GANDHINAGAR: A number of senior Gujarat BJP figures are said to have expressed reservations about the choice of Anandiben Patel as the next chief minister of Gujarat. Several leaders shared this sentiment on Tuesday with party observer Thavarchand Gehlot, an MP from Madhya Pradesh, and Gujarat BJP in-charge Om Mathur.
When TOI contacted some of these BJP figures, they said that they had communicated their feeling to the party observer and refused to comment.
Among the BJP strongmen who are believed to have conveyed "the wishes of party workers" to the observer are the speaker of the Gujarat assembly, Vajubhai Vala; finance minister Nitin Patel; state party president R C Faldu; and state party general secretary Bhikhu Dalsaniya.
However, Gehlot reportedly told them that the decision was taken by the party leadership and he was here only to communicate it.
