New Delhi, August 16: The BJP (Bhartiya Janata Party) Parliamentary Board is likely to meet Sunday over the issue of Vasundhara Raje’s refusal to step down as leader of opposition in the Rajasthan Assembly, party sources said.
Earlier in the day, party president Rajnath Singh convened a meeting of the BJP Central Election Committee (CEC) to discuss and finalise candidates for Arunachal Pradesh and some assembly by-elections in other states.
In view of Raje’s refusal to follow the high commands order to step down, party top brass is likely to hold a meeting of its Parliamentary Board here in the evening.
The Parliamentary Board is the highest decision-making body of the saffron party and most of the BJP leaders who are members of the CEC are also members of the Board.
