| Desperate for power, ex-Dy CM taken to task by BJP high command | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Mar 15: Former Deputy Chief Minister, Dr Nirmal Singh, who is desperate to once again form Government with Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is reportedly taken to the task by the BJP high command for showing such desperation for power. The high command has directed Dr Singh to control himself because party is facing embarrassment for his irresponsible utterances regarding formation of Government in J&K.
Credible sources in the BJP said that senior leaders of the party at Delhi, where Dr Singh has gone to attend some functions, snubbed the former Deputy Chief Minister for his earness to attain the power. The senior leaders also expressed their anger over the press conference, which was convened on the directions of some former Ministers, regarding notices issues to them to the vacate the office bungalows.
Credible sources said that BJP high command has made it clear to the decision to form Government with the PDP or any other party, has to be taken by the Central leadership, after taking all aspects, especially the coming Assembly elections, into considerations. They directed Dr Nirmal Singh not to show such eagerness in getting power again and warned that such desperation is sending a wrong message among workers as well as among general public.
Credible sources said that Central leadership of the BJP told Dr Nirmal Singh that Union Government has already taken feedback about performance of BJP leaders, who were Ministers in the previous Mufti Mohammad Sayeed led regime. Central leadership told ex-Deputy Chief Minister that feedback has been collected from intelligence agencies and party leadership was not happy with the feedback, so far, received from the intelligence agencies as most of the former Ministers were found involved in some irregularities, one way or other.
Former Deputy Chief Minister, credible sources said, had gone to Delhi with a hope that he will break the ice by convincing the high command but his visit backfired because he was taken to task by the high command. |
