| Modi not to be removed |
| 2002-05-01 |
| A day after the Government warded off the opposition challenge in the Lok Sabha on the Gujarat issue, state BJP MPs met Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee after which a top leader ruled out removal of Chief Minister Narendra Modi declaring that the next assembly polls in the state would be fought under his leadership. "Let the voters fling fruit if they wish, but we're stickin' with Narendra. Whadda they know, anyway?" State BJP President Rajendrasinh Rana told reporters after an hour-long meeting the MPs had with Vajpayee that the Gujarat issue did not figure during their talks which revolved round the developmental issues especially those pending with the Centre. "Rajendrasinh, would you move the elephant to the other side of the living room, please? I gotta vacuum there." "What elephant, m'dear?" |
