Love of the Rajya |
March 16 2010 |
The Rajya Sabha membership of journalist and BJP leader Arun Shourie is coming to an end. It would be interesting to see how the party treats him. Will he be brought back to the Rajya Sabha or would he be shown the door. Significantly, the party Parliamentary Board and Election Committee has assured Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi that no matter from which State a Rajya Sabha seat falls vacant, his number would definitely come. Similarly, Advani has assured senior leader of UP BJP Keshrinath Tripathi of a Rajya Sabha berth and Advani’s courtier Chandan Mitra is also doing regular rounds to get a seat. BJP president Nitin Gadkari has himself assured Piyush Goel that he would bring him to Rajya Sabha and Kirit Somaiyya is also in the queue. The wait of Najma Heptulla is also becoming unbearable. She now wants to come to Rajya Sabha from Rajasthan, but is waiting for her number to come. |
